Interesting. I never thought of using the 'results' options as quoted
character vectors, even though in ?RweaveLatex, the description for the
'results' options indicates:
character string ("verbatim"). If "verbatim", the output of
R commands is included in the verbatim-like Soutput environment. If
"tex", the output is taken to be already proper LaTeX markup and
included as is. If "hide" then all output is completely suppressed
(but the code executed during the weave).
I can see how that could be confusing. All examples of the chunk headers I have
seen do not use quoted values. Perhaps the above should state "Non-quoted
character values" or similar verbiage.
In terms of reporting Terry, Sweave is in the 'utils' package, which is
part of "Base R", therefore under the copyright of The R Foundation.
So here is fine.
