Hello everyone. I am in the process of writing a book in Latex with Texshop, on Mac. This book contains a lot of R code, hence the need to use Sweave. I was able to compile Rnw files, and to sync back and forth from the pdf to the source Rnw. My problem now is that the book is divided in Chapters, and every chapter is in its own Rnw file. I can compile them from the main one (book.Rnw) using the

Hi: I am working on a publication and I have heard about LaTEX but I haven't actually tried to learn about it until today. I've found a few examples but I can't actually make them work properly. I have a couple of questions: Does LATEX have to be installed on your computer? How does the xtable package and Sweave work together? How can I make the code below create a table as pdf file?

Hello Because I want to use different true type fonts with latex, I''m using the XeTeX typesetting engine for my sweave-documents. I''m using Lyx with Sweave on a Windows 7 PC and have set up LyX to work with XeTeX according to the following instructions: http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/XeTeX Because the input file for XeTeX is assumed to be in UTF-8 encoding, I set the encoding

Hi, I am trying to get TextWrangler to work with LaTeX and Sweave. Ideally I would call a script from TextWrangler that would run Sweave on a document, then LaTeX (using SyncTeX), and finally open the corresponding pdf in Skim. Of course I don't always need to run Sweave and would be looking for the option of LaTeX -> Open. I found this http://www.xs4all.nl/~msneep/latex/ but it

Hello List, I have been using Sweave for my homework this last quarter and have been very impressed at how much time and effort it saves me. I, however, have run up against a problem which I have not been able to solve using any of the Sweave/LaTeX tricks I know. I work through my homework one problem at a time, typesetting equations and writing R code, etc. and occasionally use

Hi All -- I'm not sure this is the natural place for this question, but this list is the place with the best Sweave-TeXShop-sync discussion so far. My problem is that sync+Sweave+TeXShop works sometimes and not others, and it's not consistent. The failure, in which sync from PDF opens the .tex file instead of the .Rnw file, always comes after a code chunk. If I start from a simple

Hoping this is not off topic... I am in the process of writing some tutorials for my students for learning R, and naturally I'm using Sweave for this. So suddenly a question occurred to me: LaTeX has a recommended way of typesetting the TeX and LaTeX symbols, via the \TeX and \LaTeX commands. Is there a similar command for the R symbol, or in general are there any

I am using R 2.14.1. I am trying to configure Lyx with Sweave. I have read articles but I found none to be complete and I cannot import sweave document in lyx . Can anyone please help me with a stepwise procedure how to configure Lyx with Sweave so that I can run my R-code chunks from LYX ,the output being a pdf.? Thanks in advance. -Atanu -- View this message in context:

Several people have given great advice on how to successfully use X11 on Mac to so we can use the dvi previewer to view latex() output from Hmisc. Now after a version upgrade of X11 and X11sdk we are getting lots of crashes. I noticed a Mac dvi previewer with an executable stored as /Applications/TeX/TeXShop.app/Contents/MacOS/TeXShop Can we bypass X11 problems and point Hmisc to this

Hi, I am typesetting R code in TeX using the listings package. I have experimented with various settings for the text, but all look a bit ugly. This might be because I have no typographic experience ;-) I would really appreciate if people sent me the settings they use for the listings package (eg in the \usepackage line, or \lstset, I am thinking about choices for basicstyle, ... etc). I

Hi, I'm trying to use Sweave in my .tex-documents using \usepackage{Sweave} notation. I have this line in my .bash_profile export TEXINPUT=.:/Users/jrara/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/share/texmf:$TEXINPUTS When trying to typeset this .tex document, I get an error message saying ERROR: LaTeX Error: File `Sweave.sty' not found. I tried to google this problem but could not

Dear Group, I have made significant improvements to our Sweave template, have made the template self-contained (i.e., you can run it yourself and it will find the datasets it needs), and have included the output pdf file. This is at http://biostat.mc.vanderbilt.edu/SweaveTemplate . You will see in the pdf file the enhancements in how R code is pretty-printed, and I have added an example

Hello! I was just wondering if Sweave can work with \input or \include LaTeX commands. So, is it aware of such a possible hierarchy in documents. I would test that, but I don't have such a report available at the moment. I thought of that when I was writting shell script for Sweave from command line and I have solved that part there. -- Lep pozdrav / With regards, Gregor GORJANC

Hi, I have a package that I'd like to submit to CRAN that does Sweave-like processing on Open Document format files from Open Office. If I remember correctly, there is a machine that automatically R CMD checks CRAN packages. I have two questions about how that system is set up: 1. Is the bitmap device available? The example produces a file using this device and I'd like it to pass R

I had written a vignette and included a \usepackage{Rd} command to make it possible to include latex'ed Rd files in the vignette. However, when loading Rd.sty texShop produces the following error: l. 180 ...d}[1]{\ifmmode\bm{#1}\else\textbf{#1}\fi} This is on Max OS X 3.9 and R 2.0.1 Has anyone seen this before and/or is it problematic? I'm not sure whether the output suffers from this

Dear all Can anyone point to a list of valid pdf.options() encodings? I checked ?pdf and ?postscript, but they do not quite answer my questions. I would like to try UTF-8 instead of the default "ISOLatin1.enc" for Sweave plots (I have issues with Greek characters in labels). Thank you Liviu -- Do you know how to read? http://www.alienetworks.com/srtest.cfm Do you know how to write?

Hello, I'm learning to use Sweave, and I've run into a problem: sometimes, when entering long lines of input and using long variable names, Sweave will not insert linebreaks in a way that respects the width setting. This causes undesirable overflows into the margins in the latex file. For example, consider the following document (adapted from the GLM example): \documentclass{article}

Hello Does anybody have experience with Sweave run from Kile? I'm trying to make it run but have problems and don't know if the instructions are false or I do something wrong (my knowledge in bash and shell is too low to understand it)... I discovered recently Sweave and wanted to run it from my latex editor, Kile. I found and followed these instructions: > If you want to be able

Hi When using Sweave, most of my functions get called with complex arguments. They get typeset in with additions that I don't want; "1+1i" appears as "1 + (0 + 1i)" and I would rather have plain old "1+1i". Example follows: \documentclass[a4paper]{article} \title{A Test File} \author{Robin Hankin} \usepackage{a4wide} \begin{document} \maketitle A
