Hi David I am using emacs + org-mode (http://orgmode.org/) for exactly this (see http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/intro.php#reproducable-research for an example for Reproducible research andhttp://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/languages/org-babel-doc-R.php about R in emacs + org-mode + ESS. It is literate programming at its best. Concerning reproducible research and report generating, org-babel has one HUGE advantage: you an combine different programming languages easily in the report - so e.g. you can do your analysis in R, do some data preparation in python, and some final file manipulations in bash - and everything is in one file and reproducible (see http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/intro.php#meta-programming-language and http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/examples/data-collection-analysis.php). I think that would be the best tool for the job (see http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/uses.php for examples for what it can be used - some will be relevant for your intended application). Although emacs has a steep learning curve, it is definitely worth it (and it works on Linux, Windows and Mac) - and the mailing list is also really good.
