Dear All, I have been using Sweave (mainly via the Sweave.sh script) and really like it. I am working a paper (using Sweave, of course) which includes several time-consuming computations, and it gets tedious to re-compile the whoel thing every time I made changes. Then I discover the "cacheSweave" package, which seems the right solution to my problem. I only have on problem. Here is

Does anybody have a workable system to run an Rnw document through R-Sweave when necessary, but to just run it through LaTeX if no new R calculations are needed? I.e., the figures already exist, I do not need R to do more work for me, so I send the document straight to LaTeX. I want to leave open the option that I might need to run the document through Sweave in the future, so I don't want

Hi, Maybe I'm missing the point here...but let's suppose you are working with "large" data sets and using functions that take a significant amount of time to run in R. I woulnd't like to run these functions every time I call Sweave("myfile.Rnw") within R. What is the "common" practice to use Sweave in these situations. I would just run the function once,

Hi all, I use the excellent packages rjags and cacheSweave, and unfortunately seem to have found an incompatibility between them. Below are a minimal .Rnw file and corresponding JAGS model file which illustrate the problem: *** JAGS model file; name=j.bug *** model { mu ~ dnorm(0,1.0E-5) sigma ~ dunif(0,100) for(i in 1:length(y)) { y[i] ~ dnorm(mu,sigma) } } *** *** .Rnw

Hello everybody out there using Sweave, There are some complicated SQL queries and laborous calculations against large data included as R code chunks using Sweave in my LaTeX document. These code chunks create graphs that do not change most of the time, but they are of course recompiled every time I run Sweave on my file for update of minor changes to the LaTeX text. Is there an option

Dear list, I wish to use a specific driver to process an sweave document in the inst/doc directory of a package. Specifically, I would like to use either cacheSweave or pgfSweave to speed up the creation of the vignette which requires lengthy computations. The same request would also apply to the highlight driver, to provide syntax highlighting of R chunks. In "writing R extensions" I

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?

Dear All I am preparing a number of vignettes that require a very long time to process with Sweave. The longest one takes 10 hours. I love the weaver package! Is a package that includes such a computationally intensive vignette acceptable on CRAN? Are there any guidelines here? -- Robin K. S.

Dear all, When I use the cacheSweave package together with the Sweave option keep.source = TRUE, all the LaTeX code before the Sweave code chunk is included in the TeX file to be compiled. For example, with the following Sweave file \documentclass[12pt]{article} \usepackage[nogin]{Sweave} % Sweave options \SweaveOpts{keep.source=TRUE, strip.white=TRUE, eps=FALSE, pdf=TRUE} \begin{document}

Hi there I have a problem with using Sweave in combination with the option driver = cacheSweave. Whichever code I try to run - when it comes to converting the tex file into pdf it comes up with the same errors (\csname \endcsname errors). Does anybody have an idea what it going wrong? > Sweave("pgfSweave-example.Rnw",driver = cacheSweaveDriver) Writing to file

Hello, I'm still trying to make the life of my colleagues easier. Nice, isn't it ? At the moment, I'm looking for a way to generate multiple "single report". In fact I have a .rnw file which send a query to a MySQL database (rs<-dbSendQuery(con, statement="select * from treatdata where name='Device1'") But of course my colleagues have many devices and

Now that R 3.0.0+ supports non-Sweave vignettes, R-exts \S 1.4.2 seems to imply that it is possible to include both Sweave and knitr vignettes in a single package. I'm wondering if anyone has tried this and/or if there are some hidden gotchas putting this into practice, and concerned about creating problems with CRAN checks if I try this. Consider two vignettes: pkg/vignettes/vign1.Rnw,

Dear list subscriber, I am quite puzzled by the behaviour of processing Sweave files within an R session, i.e. Sweave("foo.Rnw") versus R CMD Sweave foo.Rnw In the former the environmental variable 'SWEAVE_STYLEPATH_DEFAULT = TRUE' is obeyed (this is set in etc/Renviron.site as well as under the users home directory in .Renviron). That is the hard-coded path to Sweave.sty is

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")

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

Depending on an R computation I would like to include an Sweave documents in the main Sweave document. How can I do it? So I was thinking .... to use Latex features : \newif\ifpaper \ifpaper \SweaveInput{"my1.Rnw"} \else \SweaveInput{"my2.Rnw"} \fi But how do I set paper to true or false given an \Sexpr ?? \papertrue % or \paperfalse Any ideas? cheers -- Witold

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 all. To automate the production of a document I want to have something like: test.tex : test.Rnw "Sweave("test.Rnw") "| R --no-restore --no-save in a makefile. This however gives an error as R states: Sweave("test.Rnw") : not found. I use R-1.9.0pat (040424 I think) on Win XP. Any suggestions, hints or plain help appreciated. Steen Ladelund

Dear HelpeRs, I'm very fond of Sweave and I use it as often as possible. It'a a pity I can't use it for larger projects or can I? For instance suppose I have three files file1.rnw, file2.rnw and file3.rnw with Sweave code. Working on file2.rnw I whould like to exclude file1.rnw and file3.rnw temporarily and joining all of them later. This amounts to a mechanism similar to using
