In an Sweave slide, I want to use sem::read.moments() and
sem::specify.model(), which work
by using scan() to read the following lines, up to the first blank
line. However, Sweave
throws an error:
> Sweave("sem-thurstone.Rnw")
Writing to file sem-thurstone.tex
Processing code chunks ...
1 : term hide (label=arrests-setup)
2 : echo term hide (label=thurstone-data)
Error: chunk 2 (label=thurstone-data)
Error in sem-thurstone.Rnw:43:12: unexpected numeric constant
42: .828
43: .776 .779
^
Is there some switch or option for Sweave that will make this work?
Below is the slide in question in an executable example:
\documentclass[dvipsnames,pdflatex,compress,beamer]{beamer}
\usepackage{Sweave}
\definecolor{Sinput}{rgb}{1,0,0}
\definecolor{Scode}{rgb}{0,0,0.56}

The way Sweave works is not to pipe the code chunks into a console-like evaluator, it's to parse the whole code chunk, then evaluate the expressions one by one. So you can probably fake the behaviour by telling read.moments to read from somewhere else and showing different code than you really executed on the slide, but I don't think there's a way to honestly do what you want. You might be able to automate this, i.e. to write code that source()'s a file and echos the right tex code to make it look as though it was entered at the command line, but it would be messy.
