Dear R-help,
I would like to include the documentation of an R function in an
*.rnw document processed by Sweave. Because I'm sharing my *.rnw
files with colleagues under Linux and Windows (I'm on Mac OS X),
I would like a pure R solution.
The naive approach doesn't work, because Sweaving this *.rnw
file:
-------- tmp.rnw --------
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
<<>>=
?plot
@
\end{document}
-------- tmp.rnw --------
yields the following LaTeX file on my platform (session info at the end):
-------- tmp.tex --------
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/share/texmf/Sweave}
\begin{document}
\begin{Schunk}
\begin{Sinput}
> `?`(plot)
\end{Sinput}
\end{Schunk}
\end{document}
-------- tmp.tex --------
in which no Soutput has been generated. Is it possible to redirect the
help output, in a platform-independent way, so that it is included in
the Soutput environment of the LaTeX file?
Best,
Jean
