When using knitr with a class like apa6e the code chunks default to double space like rest of the document. This is not desirable.
This could be altered by wrapping with:
\begin{singlespace}
<<*>>=
CODE
@
\end{singlespace}
How can this be done globally rather than wrapping with the tex single space tags?
