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 to just convert the document to pure LaTeX format. Here's why I think this must be possible. In this list, I saw one of you explain this approach to working with figures in Sweave docs: Instead of using the automatic figure inclusion approach like this: <<testfn2, fig=true>>= curve(sin, from = 1, to = 55) @ Do this instead: \SweaveOpts{prefix.string=foo/bar} <<testfn2, fig=true, include=false>>= curve(sin, from = 1, to = 55) @ \begin{figure} \caption{My Figure} \includegraphics{foo/bar-testfn} \end{figure} As long as the figures are saved in the directory foo, then LaTeX will find them, I think (hope!). Then if I could tell LaTeX to ignore the <<>> ...@ stuff, then it *seems* to me the Rnw file would be processed successfully without further hassle. I am sorry if this has been asked & answered before, I may not know the "magic words" for searching for past solutions. pj -- Paul E.
