Hi - I've had a further play and got something working that is good enough for my needs. Here is what I did in case it helps anyone else trying to do something similar:
I edited $:/plugins/tiddlywiki/highlight/highlight.js instead of $:/plugins/tiddlywiki/highlight/highlightblock.js In highlight.js the languages are defined in blocks of code starting with hljs.registerLanguage. I just copied and pasted one of these blocks, named the language "r" and edited the words that I wanted to be highlighted, which are easy to spot within highlight.js. This seems to be stable and is working ok. So I have a workaround but it isn't using the official highlight.js R brush and I would love this to be included in a future version of TiddlyWiki . All the best, and thank you once again for TiddlyWiki.
