=Tags: lang rsplus vs lang r=
I'm an R user and, like many of the R solutions on this site, when I want to contribute a solution in R, I do what seems to be the natural thing and start my solution with a '''lang r''' tag. This doesn't introduce any special formatting, but I didn't know to expect it to. Recently, I've noticed other R solutions on the site that start their code with '''lang rsplus''' tags and these appear to format the submitted code with nice colours that make R users smile. This raises a few questions that I'd like answered:
 
1) Is there any reason that any one of '''lang r''' or '''lang rsplus''' may be considered the correct option? If so, I'll gladly convert all of my solutions to the correct option.
 
2) Why does '''lang r''' appear to do nothing? Why does it not have the same functionality as '''lang rsplus'''? Is there a template that could be copied to give them the same functionality?
 
3) If the answer to #2 is anything to do with avoiding duplication of work, then is it possible to do a site-wide replacement of one tag for another (e.g. replace all '''lang r''' tags with '''lang rsplus''' tags)? Users would be much less likely to use an incorrect tag if they have never seen it before.
 
As an example of the difference between '''lang r''' and '''lang rsplus''' tags, have a look at the two solutions found at https://rosettacode.org/wiki/Left_factorials#R
