Well, you can write your Sweave files also looking like
**********************************************************
This is some latex documentation bla bla bla
And here comes a code chuck:
\begin{Scode}{echo=FALSE,fig=TRUE}
plot(rnorm(100))
\end{Scode}
and here we go again with latex
**********************************************************
and Sweave will process it correctly (if the file has extension
.Rtex). As Sweave does not use noweb's magic <<>>= tags in this case,
you can use those for regular noweb processing. Of course you loose
the nice handling of code chunks by ESS in that case ...
Best,
Fritz
