Dear Emmanuel and dear list,
Therefore, I let this problem to sleep. However, I Cc this answer (with
the original question below) to Max Kuhn and Friedrich Leisch, in the
(faint) hope that this feature, which does not seem to have been missed
by anybody in 8 years,
I've been missing it every once in a while, but till now I could always rephrase
the problem with expand = FALSE or functions, and the chunk that does the actual
calculation at the end.
Most often, however, I'm just lazy and use R comments. If math should go in
there, I use listings instead of fancyvrb with the modified Sweave.sty that
hopefully is attached (if not, see below).
Here's an example chunk:
<<keep.source=TRUE>>=
1 / 2 # $\frac{1}{x}$
4 + 4 # Here may come lots of explanations, that are in a \LaTeX\
paragraph\footnote{blabla}: even long lines are properly broken.\\ Though the
new lines start at the beginning of the line. \\[6pt] And a line break in the
chunk source will of course be interpreted as R again: so no new paragraphs
inside the same comment.
# But there can be new commented lines.
3 + 6
# Note that comment only lines at the end of a code chunk seem to be lost.
# Not only one but all that aren't followed by R code
@
(the second line should be very long, I somehow can't keep thunderbird from
inserting line breaks)
Hope that helps a bit,
Claudia
