I would add a bit of detail here that I do.  ESS/xemacs allows one to create
a transcript file that you can then step through, executing each command as
it was originally executed.  I make one of these transcript files for each
project and save it with the data and any scripts that I have for the
project.  So, in the end, I have a set of Rda files, one or more transcript
files, and a Src directory that contains any function code (and ESS supports
saving scripts to this directory automatically).
