Is there any way of getting just the LaTex output which R CMD Rd2dvi generates on the way to produces a .dvi file, which could then be incoorporated into another document?

...ry=$(RHOME)/share/texmf # # Define to use other TeX # # PDFLATEX = pdflatex # LATEX = latex # PDFTEX = pdftex # TEX = tex else PDFLATEX = pdflatex LATEX = latex PDFTEX = pdftex TEX = tex endif My problem is that I don't know enough about Bourne shell scripting and GNU make to have this affect Rd2dvi (and possibly other Rcmd commands, I haven't looked yet). Specifically, we need to have Rd2dvi.sh import these definitions from src/gnuwin32/MkRules, which may have been edited by the user since Rd2dvi.sh was built. A complication is that if the user has already defined environment variab...

Full_Name: Ole Christensen Version: 1.3.0 OS: Solaris Submission from: (NULL) (130.225.48.2) I have discovered a problem with script Rd2dvi for R-1.3.0 on our Solaris machines. When writing R CMD Rd2dvi Name_of_Package, then things go wrong with the conversion to Latex of the DESCRIPTION file in the package. Having discussed the problem with our system administrator, he constructed a script illustrating the problem (see below: scrip...

Hi, I run into a problem with "R CMD Rd2dvi" command: it gives me "File `Rd.sty' not found" error (See the output message on the bottom). I get the same error when running "RCMD check".

When I create a manual for a package that I create and use locally, e.g. via R CMD Rd2dvi --pdf foo where ``foo'' is the name of the directory containing the source for the package (also named ``foo'') the resulting manual does not appear to have an index. The package.pdf files appearing on CRAN all seem to have indices. What must I do to get an index appended to th...

...Murdoch <dmurdoch@pair.com> License: GPL The Description line is supposed to show up on 2 lines; line wrapping might have messed it up. When I put a tab at the start of the line ahead of "See the orientlib help topic", I don't get that line in the .pdf manual produced by Rcmd Rd2dvi.sh --pdf orientlib When I put a space there (as above), it works fine. Could someone let me know if this is Windows-specific? If not, opinions about whether the error in is the script or the documentation (Writing R Extensions, Creating R packages, Package Structure, The DESCRIPTION file) would...

The document R-exts contains the following example of using mathematics in R documentation. \deqn{p(x) = {\lambda^x\ \frac{e^{-\lambda}}{x!}} {p(x) = lambda^x exp(-lambda)/x!} There is a syntax error in there, but that's not my point. The problem is that using "R CMD Rd2dvi" I find that putting the alternate forms of the equation on top of each other doesn't work. \deqn{foo} {bar} is interpreted as \deqn{foo} bar which causes a number of problems,e.g. you get both forms of the equation printed, LaTeX complains about missing math delimiters, etc. I so...

Hi When preparing documentation using Rd2dvi sometimes we get "overflow" on some lines. The consequence is that in the documentation there are some lines where words are not hyphenated or moved. The final document has some lines with more columns than the rest of the text. This happens when we use \code{} (which probably calls the...

Dear all, I writing my first package and everything seems to work (at least up to now) However when I try to build documentation (.dvi or .pdf), using Rcmd Rd2dvi.sh --pdf mypack.Rd I get a mypack.pdf whose title is "R documentation of mypack.Rd" instead of "The mypack package" as it should be, is it right? Also Version, Title, ....License, namely info from the DESCRIPTION file, are missing on the first page. Where is the problem? Many...

I have noted that the later versions of Rcmd check cleans out the directory pkg.Rcheck so that only package-manual.log and package-manual.pdf are left. Formerly the package-manual.tex was around too --- very handy for various purposes. Is there a way to generate the .tex - version of the manual for a package? br.
