Thank you Duncan, for expanding Sweave functionality,
notably considering error handling.
Related to that is the topic of handling warning messages.
I thought someone (Fritz? One of the Sweave support package writers?)
was working on the issue of including error and warning messages in
Sweave output. My changes don't address that problem.
The changes I'm going to make will only be visible in syntax errors. R
currently has the underlying support to allow it to report source file
line numbers in execution time error messages, but it isn't taken
advantage of in many places. If that is expanded, my Sweave changes
should take advantage of it automatically.

In a course on "using R" (for beginners),
I would really like to show warnings that code chunks produce.
Currently, the warnings are printed to the console when I run
'R CMD Sweave ..' and do not appear in the resulting *.tex file.
Of course --- fortune("Yoda") ---
I can always fudge what I want,
but it would be quite desirable to have simple Sweave option
which would deal with warnings()
{ and maybe message(), stop(), and general exception handling;
but for all practical purposes, it's the warnings that I'd
like to be handled automatically.}
