Thanks Rich, While it doesn't tickle me the way sweave/knitr does, SWord sounds more or less like the thing I'm looking for. However, poking around http://rcom.univie.ac.at/ and http://www.statconn.com doesn't reveal any download links. It seems as though SWord has been pulled from their lineup? Not sure - I've shot them an email to inquire.
