Hello!
Those of you, who use Sweave a lot, will probably find my shell script
usable. You can get it at:
http://www.bfro.uni-lj.si/MR/ggorjan/programs/shell/Sweave.sh
No warranty, however don't hesitate to contact me if you find an error or
have a patch!

[R] Run Sweave and LaTeX directly from command line
It might be possible to translate 90% of this into R leaving just a short shell portion in which case it would be easy to translate just that part into Windows batch making it available on that OS too. As someone already mentioned, using texi2dvi could be helpful too. Regards.

Gabor,
I definitely agree about use of R, however I am not so "much in" R
as I am in Bash. It took me less than two hours to write this script.
At home I use R under windows and I solve problem of portability
with Cygwin. I know that this is not optimal solution for everyone
but ...
Can you provide me some insights/thoughts how this script might be
written in R? I am open for discussion and cooperation on this script.
What do you think Friedrich? I must look at this texi2dvi. I didn't
hav any experience with it jet. I will look at it.

Friedrich, This texi2dvi is also very nice. Dou you know of any pros and cons in comparison to rubber? Is tex2dvi also shipped with R for windows? I am not able to find a binnary in my windows installation, however I found help page. Did I missed anything?

[R] Run Sweave and LaTeX directly from command line
There are two main TeX distributions for Windows, MiKTeX and fptex. texi2dvi.exe ships with MiKTeX but not fptex. I think fptex has a texi2dvi UNIX shell script that in principle could be used with the Cygwin shell on Windows though I have never tried it. Because of that MiKTeX is really the only one of the two distributions that fully supports R although many people who use R on Windows apparently use fptex and it does not give problems apparently provided you don't get into currently lesser used features such as vignettes (althoutgh that may change).

[R] Run Sweave and LaTeX directly from command line
This does not really answer your question and frankly
I have not really spent the time to figure out what your
script does but assuming ...\R\rw????\bin is in your PATH
then the following one line batch file will run Sweave
from the command line in the Windows console (assuming
its placed in a batch file called Sweave.bat):
rem Usage: Sweave filename
echo Sweave("%1") | R --no-save --no-restore
After running this the user would run
texi2dvi --pdf myfile.tex
