Hello,
I tried looking for a Sweave-specific list but didn't find one, nor did I find
an answer via google, so will send this question to the general R list. Please
feel free to point me in the right direction.
I am using Sweave and would like to have a single .Rnw document that generates
1) a summary report, 2) a full report, 3) slides for a talk. I think my
material lends itself to have it all coming from one master document because a
lot of the plots, writings, and calculations are shared, but I would need
Sweave to generate separate files with me somehow pointing to what goes where.
Is this possible with Sweave?
I don't think it's very easy with plain Sweave, but there are several
packages aimed at supporting large multi-file Sweave projects that could
probably come close. The main thing that you probably couldn't easily
do is to have it all in one .Rnw file; Sweave produces one .tex file
from one .Rnw input, and LaTeX normally produces only one output from
one .tex input.
However, it should be easy to have 3 files that were processed by a
single function call, and have them share data. For example, take a
look at the "project management" part of the vignette for my patchDVI
package on R-forge.r-project.org. Without a bit of programming, you'd
end up with three .tex files which needed separate processing, but that
extra bit of programming would be easy.
