Re: Rweave for Windows Lyx (problem solved!)
Thank you, Nicolás. Also thank Uwe Ligges, Brian D. Ripley, and Paul Johnson for their advices. Here is a summary of the advices about how to make Rweave work in Lyx under Windows: Suppose your Lyx is installed in C:\ProgramFiles\Lyx and your R in C:\ProgramFiles\R-2.2.1. 1. Create a R file MakeSweave.R with the following lines and then put it in C:\ProgramFiles\Lyx\bin\ (this is a path registered in Lyx). library(tools) args - commandArgs() inp - args[length(args)] Sweave(inp) base - sub(\.(Rnw|Rtex)$, , inp) texi2dvi(paste(base, .tex, sep=), pdf=TRUE) shell.exec(paste(base, .pdf, sep=)) 2. Create a batch script called Rweave.bat with the follwowing line, and put it in C:\ProgramFiles\Lyx\bin\. (Note that back slash /, rather than slash /, is used in the script.) C:/ProgramFiles/R-2.2.1/bin/Rterm --no-save --args %1 C:/ProgramFiles/LyX/bin/MakeSweave.R %1.log 3. Put noweb.sty (can be found in google, or simply grab this file: http://www.lsi.upc.es/~tpl/noweb.sty) in C:\ProgramFiles\Miktex\tex\latex\noweb\ and refresh MikTex. 4. Reconfigure Lyx (go to Edit- Reconfigure). Check if you have document class article(noweb) (Layout-Document), If not, you may need to reinstall Lyx. 5. Last, make Lyx recognize the converter script Rweave. Go to Edit-Preferences-Converters. In the From pulldown, choose Noweb. In the To pulldown, choose LaTeX. Hit the new button toward the bottom. Then, make sure the Converter Noweb-LaTeX is chosen, and in the box called Converter type Rweave $$i without the quotation . To test if the installation is done, check out Dr. Paul Johnson's example file (http://pj.freefaculty.org/stat/Distributions/Gamma-02.lyx ). See if you can view its pdf file. -Frank Liu

Re: Rweave for Windows Lyx (problem solved!)
Thank you, Nicolás. Also thank Uwe Ligges, Brian D. Ripley, and Paul
Johnson for their advices. Here is a summary of the advices about how to
make Rweave work in Lyx under Windows:
Suppose your Lyx is installed in C:\ProgramFiles\Lyx and your R in
C:\ProgramFiles\R-2.2.1.
1. Create a R file "MakeSweave.R" with the following lines and then put
it in "C:\ProgramFiles\Lyx\bin\" (this is a path registered in Lyx).
library(tools)
args <- commandArgs()
inp <- args[length(args)]
Sweave(inp)
base <- sub("\.(Rnw|Rtex)$", "", inp)
texi2dvi(paste("base", ".tex", sep=""), pdf=TRUE)
shell.exec(paste("base", ".pdf", sep=""))
2. Create a batch script called "Rweave.bat" with the follwowing line,
and put it in "C:\ProgramFiles\Lyx\bin\". (Note that back slash "/",
rather than slash "/", is used in the script.)
C:/ProgramFiles/R-2.2.1/bin/Rterm --no-save --args "%1"
"%1.log"
3. Put noweb.sty (can be found in google, or simply grab this file:
http://www.lsi.upc.es/~tpl/noweb.sty) in
C:\ProgramFiles\Miktex\tex\latex\noweb\ and refresh MikTex.
4. Reconfigure Lyx (go to Edit-> Reconfigure). Check if you have
document class "article(noweb)" (Layout->Document), If not, you may need
to reinstall Lyx.
5. Last, make Lyx recognize the converter script Rweave. Go to
Edit->Preferences->Converters. In the "From" pulldown, choose Noweb. In
the "To" pulldown, choose LaTeX. Hit the "new" button toward the bottom.
Then, make sure the Converter Noweb->LaTeX is chosen, and in the box
called "Converter" type "Rweave $$i" without the quotation "".
To test if the installation is done, check out Dr. Paul Johnson's
example file (http://pj.freefaculty.org/stat/Distributions/Gamma-02.lyx
). See if you can view its pdf file.
