Read ?RweaveLatex for more settings. or if you want this to happen in all code chunks add this early on in the rnw file: \SweaveOpts{strip.white=false} Haris Skiadas Department of Mathematics and Computer Science Hanover College On Mar 29, 2008, at 4:54 AM, Werner Wernersen wrote: > Thanks for your comments! > I think using just one backslash for \n is correct > because otherwise I get a "\n" literally printed out > in the generated .tex code.
