R help - May 2005 - inserting R code in a latex document

Hello,

I'm trying to insert R source code (functions) in an appendix of a latex 
document. I guess the easiest way to do so is to use the package Sweaved 
(file : Sweaved.sty) provided with the latest R version. Latex succeeds 
in loading the package, but my problem comes from the use of this very 
package. I tried to use the 'Schunk' environment, but '#'
characters
generate error (my R functions are annotated, and I want to keep those 
annotations). Under the 'Sinput' environment, no error is generated but 
the result is simply not different from what would be obtained under 
'verbatim' environment : R code lines are cut as they don't fit in
the
page width.

I tried to find answers in the latest Sweaved User Manual, 
unsuccessfully. I'm a recent latex user and I doubt I can quickly find a 
solution by myself.

Thanks,
Thibaut Jombart

I think we are talking about "Sweave" in package "utils"?
If so, you will find that you have to re-read the manual, because you 
don't need to specify 'Schunk'/'Sinput' yourself: Sweave
does it for
you. Just write the code in code chunks such as

<<>>code
# comment
@
LaTeX code

and apply Sweave on your noweb document, the resulting LaTeX document 
has appropriate environments.
