Here is the file minimal.Snw:

\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\title{R tips and tricks}
\author{Murray Jorgensen}
\usepackage{Sweave}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\section*{Entering data from a single variable}
The following data are transformed tensile strength measurements on polyester
fibres. They may be found on the file \texttt{TENSILE.DAT}. We
may enter this data into R using the \texttt{scan} command.
<<>>=
strength <- scan()
0.023 0.032 0.054 0.069 0.081 0.094
0.105 0.127 0.148 0.169 0.188 0.216


@
\end{document}

and now I attempt to use SWeave to convert it to minimal.tex:

> Sweave("minimal.Snw")
Writing to file minimal.tex
Processing code chunks ...
 1 : echo term verbatim

Error:  chunk 1
Error in parse(file, n, text, prompt) : parse error

It seems a rather simple piece of code to generate such an error message!
