[ESS] Sweave with ESS and AUCTeX

[Sparapani, Rodney]

ess-help:

Still can’t figure out to get this to work with ESS, but I’ve got it now for AUCTeX.

Well, at least, for v11.88.  You need this definition…
(eval-after-load "tex"
  '(add-to-list 'TeX-command-list
                        '("SweavePDF" "R CMD Sweave --pdf %s.Rnw" TeX-run-command t t :help "SweavePDF") t))
And then add this to make it the default with C-c C-c
%Local Variables:
%TeX-command-default: "SweavePDF"
%End:

With v2018-01-18 which comes with Vincent’s emacs/ESS/AUCTeX distro, you don’t add the .Rnw (why?)
(eval-after-load "tex"
  '(add-to-list 'TeX-command-list
                        '("SweavePDF" "R CMD Sweave --pdf %s" TeX-run-command t t :help "SweavePDF") t))
But, you still have the bug I mentioned below: viewing doesn’t work, because it looks for computing.Rnw.pdf
instead of computing.pdf.  And the file local variables trick doesn’t work either ;o(
So, I’m downgrading to v11.88

Thanks,

Rodney

Hi Kasper:

I was trying to avoid adding jss.cls to texmf on every single machine that
I use, which are several, since R already has it anyways.  It would be great
if ESS’ AUCTeX support did the right thing out of the box.  Of course, you can
tell AUCTeX how to compile Rnw with Sweave…

(eval-after-load "tex"
  '(add-to-list 'TeX-command-list
                        '("Sweave" "R CMD Sweave %s" TeX-run-command t t :help "Sweave") t))

(eval-after-load "tex"
  '(add-to-list 'TeX-command-list
                        '("SweavePDF" "R CMD Sweave --pdf %s" TeX-run-command t t :help "SweavePDF") t))

But, then viewing doesn’t work, because it looks for computing.Rnw.pdf instead of
computing.pdf.  So, I think the best way forward is to make ESS’ setting
ess-swv-plug-into-AUCTeX-p work with AUCTeX (I’m using v12.1).  Not sure how to
do that yet.

Thanks,

Rodney

________________________________
To me, I would suspect a path issue.  How does tex find the cls file?  Possibilities: (1) it is in the same directory as the tex file (2) you have installed it into the texmf tree and updated the tex search path to find it (3) you have put it somewhere (perhaps in the texmf tree) and uses enviroment variables to tell tex its location.

If it is (1) I would be a bit confused because I think (I may be wrong) that tex automatically searches for cls/sty files in the same directory as the tex file.

Best,
Kasper

Hi Stephen:

1. No.  Typo it is actually jss.cls.  But, it is not just jss.cls,
there are other packages that come with R but not TeX Live
like thumbpdf and lmodern.
2. Yes, I’m talking about knitr.  R CMD Sweave is ambidextrous.

Thanks,

Rodney

    1. is jss.sty in the same folder as your computing.Rnw

    2. surely JSS should adopt knitr rather than Sweave?
