   I finally came up with this workaround in my ~/.Rprofile

   setHook(
       packageEvent("IRkernel", "onLoad"),
       function(...) {
           repr_text <- function(obj, ...)
               paste0("<pre>", paste0(utils::capture.output(obj), collapse = "\n"), "</pre>")
           evalq(local({
                   registerS3method("repr_html", "integer", repr_text)
                   registerS3method("repr_html", "double", repr_text)
                   registerS3method("repr_html", "character", repr_text)
               }),
               envir = getNamespace("repr")
           )
       }
   )

   Oh, I guess I understand why vectors are printed as html as default. Without the knowledge of the device width, R could only print up to the default width 80.

   

   But still, I think it is way better than the html.

   It used to look better in jupyter notebook because I attach a CSS class. This class is no longer available in jupyter lab. Do you have an idea how to improve that? Can I render a <style> tag next to each <ol> and it’ll work?
