Thanks, Duncan,

but, sorry, including

\SweaveOpts{strip.white=true}

doesn't help. Have tried that before and forgot to mention; sorry!

true is the default.  You want false.

BTW: using \SweaveOpts{strip.white="true"}, i.e., with quotation marks as
requested in RweaveLatex()'s help file, throws out

Error in match.arg(options$strip.white, c("true", "false", "all")) :
    'arg' should be one of "true", "false", "all"

which used to happen before (on my system) so that I used to use it w/o
quotes successfully. (!?)


Still big question marks ... Any further ideas?

   Regards -- Gerrit
