Just a couple of small bug-lets/stuffs in Sweave:
- It stripes off the two lines starting with @ (this is a verbatim section
showing plink's start-up message):

- XeTeX definitely does not like having any \usepackage[whatever]{inputenc}
(it assumes inputs are always utf-8)
While both of these can be worked around - using \input{} for anything Sweave
might mess with, and put a % in front of \userpackage[inputenc] (Sweave seems to
read LaTeX comments as real; but that's probaby a mis-feature...); SWeave
probably should not stripe @ without a starting <<>>= noweb marker.
Had a couple of discussion elsewhere - it seems that international stuff in
LaTeX, XeTeX and/or LuaTeX are the main ones to use, but for most parts people
still stick to regional encodings (e.g. iso 8859-11 for Thai) so dependences on
inputenc is not really useful.
FWIW.
