I think I've gotten my Emacs/Sweave/R system set up correctly, thanks to Vincent and Jim, but I haven't been successful getting my first document produced. I'm trying to use one of Friedrich Leisch's examples, http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~leisch/Sweave/example-1.Snw. I cut and pasted the text into a document sweaveexample.Rnw in Emacs. It seemed to be processed successfully with R: > Sweave("sweaveexample.Rnw") Writing to file sweaveexample.tex Processing code chunks ...
You can now run LaTeX on 'sweaveexample.tex' > However, when I try to open the file sweaveexample.tex and process it with Latex in Emacs, I get this error: ERROR: Missing \endcsname inserted. --- TeX said --- <to be read again> \protect l.7 \begin {document} --- HELP --- >From the .log file... The control sequence marked <to be read again> should not appear between \csname and \endcsname. I've tried a variety of examples, but the error messages are the same. Can anyone point out my errors or mistakes? I've pasted in the full files below. Thanks so much for your help and advice. -Kevin Kevin Zembower Internet Services Group manager Center for Communication Programs Bloomberg School of Public Health Johns Hopkins University 111 Market Place, Suite 310 Baltimore, Maryland 21202 410-659-6139 ============================== sweaveexample.tex: ============================== \documentclass[a4paper]{article} \title{Sweave Example 1} \author{Friedrich Leisch} \usepackage{C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-26~1.2/share/texmf/Sweave} \begin{document} \maketitle In this example we embed parts of the examples from the \texttt{kruskal.test} help page into a \LaTeX{} document: \begin{Schunk} \begin{Sinput} > data(airquality) > library(ctest) > kruskal.test(Ozone ~ Month, data = airquality) \end{Sinput} \begin{Soutput} Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test data: Ozone by Month Kruskal-Wallis chi-squared = 29.2666, df = 4, p-value = 6.901e-06 \end{Soutput} \end{Schunk} which shows that the location parameter of the Ozone distribution varies significantly from month to month.
