[R] help with knit_hooks

[Yihui Xie]

This is the only public reference at the moment:
http://yihui.name/knitr/hooks (which has explained why your hook does
not work)

Or learn by examples: https://github.com/yihui/knitr-examples (e.g. example 045)

Or in the spirit of "Luke, use the source!", see https://github.com/yihui/knitr

Regards,
Yihui
