Maybe what you want is a kind of 'notebook' capability. That is, you want
to mix code and results in a working document that is incrementally
improved and extended.

If so, you might consider orgmode, which makes good use of ESS and allows
you to edit with ess and save printed results and graphics in the same
document with the code and have the results updated as you improve your
code. See:
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/languages/ob-doc-R.html
Some other options to mixing code and results are given in this thread:

and on some threads this year on this list.
And there is also the outshine approach to organizing code documents
with extensive commentary:
