similar to: AW: built-in Sweave-like documentation in R-2.x

Hi devels, i did not find at this page: http://developer.r-project.org/ideas.txt any ideas concerning incorporating documentation possibilities (say, Sweave-based) into R-scripts. Was it discussed already? (If discussed, then what is the decision/conclusion then?) thanks, Valery

I can't get Emacs to automatically do syntax highlighting of Sweave files. I have followed Friedrich's suggestion for code to insert into my .emacs file. The complete section from my .emacs file is given below. When I load a *.Snw file, font is white until I press M-x, then the first code and document chunks get highlighted, but not the rest of the file. Latex and Noweb menus are

Greetings! I have a few colleagues who like the idea of Sweave, but have failed to become enlightened monks of the One True Editor (http://www.dina.dk/~abraham/religion/) Are there any other Microsoft-centric editors or IDEs which have solid support for writing SWeave documents (dual R / LaTeX enhancements similar to ESS's support)? Has anyone tried the folding editors which support Noweb?

Dear list, I have tried to setup my Xemacs for use with Sweave, which I indend to learn. I have followed the instructions in the Sweave FAQ, that is to say, I put (defun Rnw-mode () (require 'ess-noweb) (noweb-mode) (if (fboundp 'R-mode) (setq noweb-default-code-mode 'R-mode))) (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.Rnw\\'" . Rnw-mode)) (add-to-list

I am having some trouble getting reftex, in particular the bibtex related features, to work properly in xemacs when editing text in Sweave files. I have added (defun Rnw-mode () (noweb-mode) (if (fboundp 'R-mode) (setq noweb-default-code-mode 'R-mode))) (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.Rnw\\'" . Rnw-mode)) (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist

I have found a quite strange (to me) behaviour in Sweave. It only occurs in the following situation: 1. define a variable in one chunk 2. use it within a subsequent figure-generating chunk 3. delete it at the end of that same chunk Then the Sweave driver chokes, not finding the variable name when generating the figure Example: % document bug2.Rnw \documentclass{article} \usepackage{Sweave}

Hallo! Trying to configure Xemacs to work with .snw files on windows 2000. Tried to do it how it is described in the FAQ for Sweaves. When starting xemacs with and Snw file *ESS* buffer contains hundrets of lines and the few last ones. (ess-loop-timeout . 500000) (inferior-ess-primary-prompt . ^) (inferior-ess-secondary-prompt . ^) (comint-use-prompt-regexp-instead-of-fields . t)

I'm working on the next iteration of coxme. (Rather slowly during the summer). This is the most subtle code I've done in S, both mathematically and technically, and seems a perfect vehicle for the "literate programming" paradym of Knuth. The Sweave project is pointed at S output however, not source code. I would appreciate any pointers to an noweb type client that was

Dear List, I am trying to become more familiar with Sweave at the moment, beacuse I am convinced that it will eventually make my life easier. However, I have not found anything relevant in the mail archives about the following problem. Both the article in R-News and the Sweave FAQ suggest that Emacs would be a great development environment for working with Sweave. So far, it doesn't seem to

Hi all, What is the right portable way to save graphics in batch mode? Remarks: 1. Problem is STFWed and RTFMed. In particular a short note about png() is found in R-FAQ. In fact, there were stated that png() is not reliable under Linux in batch mode. 2. savePlot under windows is quite convenient, but not supplied under Linux. 3. pdf() + postscript() < savePlot()

I'm writing a couple of related functions, and I'd like to generate a (single) .R file (containing the function definitions), and separate .Rd files (documenting each function). Would this be possible with Sweave/noewb? Has anyone tried something along this idea? -- Regards, Bj?rn-Helge Mevik

I'm trying to (re)learn Sweave and run into some problems. I use now ubuntu (8.10), emacs + ess. Slowly getting upto speed on ess. I have a complete (hopefully) .Rnw file, but the resulting .tex will not compile. The file does not contain anything exotic, but it produces pdf figures, and that is where the problems come: library(tools) > Sweave("varioCoo.Rnw") Writing to file

I've noticed a change in behavior in R 2.12.0 from 2.11.1 regarding the treatment of absolute paths in the file argument of Sweave in a Windows environment. Consider the minimal Rnw file, attached and reproduced below my signature in case .Rnw files get stripped. This file is stored on my (Windows) computer in H:/My Documents. Using an absolute path with the standard window's

Almost all of the coxme package and an increasing amount of the survival package are now written in noweb, i.e., .Rnw files. It would be nice to process these using the Sweave function + a special driver, which I can do using a modified version of Sweave. The primary change is to allow the following type of construction <<coxme>> coxme <- function(formula, data, subset, blah blah

Hi list, I need to process a Rnw file and and a csv file (both are encoded in UTF-8) under Windows XP (R Version 2.11.0, i386, mingw32). I can source and run the Rnw file: > Stangle("Bericht.Rnw") Writing to file Bericht.R > source(file("Bericht.R", encoding="UTF-8")) which runs fine, but running Sweave() failed: > Sweave("Bericht.Rnw")

I'm trying to get R, Sweave, ESS and XEmacs or emacs all installed and working together on my Windows XP Pro system. I've got R 2.6.0 working just fine, installed from the R Windows installer. I also have CYGWIN_NT-5.1 with XEmacs 21.4 working okay. Can anyone point me to any documentation on how to bring these together so that R code typed in Xemacs can be run in R? I found the ESS

Hi, I would like to use Sweave to document a long function. Is it possible to split the function's code into chunks such that Sweave will accept each chunk without complaining. I have tried various approaches without sucess but I feel sure that someone has done this already. Here is one attempt ============== % First, define the funciton header <<defFunHdr, eval=FALSE>>= x <-
