[R] [R-pkgs] New CRAN package "relax": R Editor for Literate Analysis and lateX
Now package relax is on CRAN. The name relax is short for R Editor for Literate Analysis and lateX The main element of package relax is the function relax() which starts an all-in-one editor for data analysis and easy creation of LaTeX based documents with R. After calling relax() it creates a tcl/tk widget with a report field. The report field enables you to enter R expressions as well as pieces of text to document your ideas. Computations and plots can be included quickly. After finishing your work the sequence of text chunks, code chunks and integrated graphics and/or R-output will constitute the basis of your work. To achieve a higher quality relax integrates LaTeX compilation for professional formatting and pretty printing. Dependencies: * R (>= 2.1.0), tcltk * relax runs on windows systems, LaTeX / ghostscript has to be installed * on Linux systems you have to install the img-package for tcltk For further info see: http://www.wiwi.uni-bielefeld.de/~wolf/software/relax/relax.html maintainer: Hans Peter Wolf Department of Economics University of Bielefeld pwolf at wiwi.uni-bielefeld.de R Editor for Literate Analysis and lateX --- the all-in-one editor for data analysis and easy creation of LaTeX based documents with R
