Hi
I was very pleased to see that the latest alpha version of Lyx now supports Sweave/R code chunks out of the box with any document class. This is a killer feature IMHO! I tried the latest version of Lyx 2.0 alpha 3 on a Windows PC and it works quite well. However, I had some problems with plotting strings containing accented letters. For instance, the following code chunk produces an error: <<echo=F, fig=T>>= plot(a, main = äöü) @ It seems that R is not executed with any locale settings. For instance <<echo=F, fig=T>>= Sys.getlocale() @ produces C I had this problem already with an earlier set up of Sweave on a Mac and I was able to solve it. See this discussion: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg04989.html I also got an error when I used the XeTeX typesetting engine in combination with the Sweave module. Regards, Erich
