With any sort of reproducible report, you'll have to 'manually place' all of
the tables and figures at least once. If done well, however, you'll only have
to ever do it once.
I'm not an Sweave expert (yet, regrettably), but using lazyWeave, you could
generate a customized ANOVA table using the code below. If you're familiar
with Sweave, I'd recommend using it.
library(lazyWeave)
#*** Function to produce the latex code for an ANOVA table
anova.table <- function(aov.object, caption="", ...){
out <- data.frame(Source = rownames(anova(aov.object)),
SS = anova(aov.object)[, 2],
D.F. = anova(aov.object)[, 1],
stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
out$MS <- out$SS / out$D.F.
out$F <- NA
out$F[-nrow(out)] <- out$MS[-nrow(out)] / out$MS[nrow(out)]
out$p <- 1 - pf(out$F, out$D.F., out$D.F.[nrow(out)])
out <- rbind(out, data.frame(Source = "Total", SS=sum(out$SS),
D.F.=sum(out$D.F.), MS=NA, F=NA, p=NA))
out$SS <- round(out$SS, 3)
out$MS <- round(out$MS, 3)
out$F <- round(out$F, 3)
rownames(out) <- NULL
out[is.na(out)] <- ""
paste(lazy.table(colnames(out), rborder=c(0, 0, 1), open=TRUE, close=FALSE,
caption=caption),
lazy.table(out, rborder=2, open=FALSE, close=TRUE), sep="\n")
}
#***
#*** Analysis of Variance
m1 <- aov(mpg ~ cyl, data=mtcars)
#***
#*** Write the result to a file
lazy.write(
lazy.file.start(),
anova.table(m1, caption="An example ANOVA table from the dataset \\tt
mtcars\\rm."),
lazy.file.end(),
OutFile="TestFile.tex")
lazy.build("TestFile.tex")

That's what sweave is *for* - automation and reproducible research. It takes
care of the heavy lifting of generating and inserting tables and figures.
You will almost certainly need some tweaking to match your own definition of
"looks fantastic" though.
