Yep, I'm using RStudio, and have used Tinn-R in the past. RStudio does start a new R session when processing a sweave document via the RStudio GUI. In my case, this presented a problem for the reasons I stated before (i.e. that I need to run sweave in the main environment, not a new one). Hence, I'm running Sweave from the command line, and processing the tex doc via TeXworks (from MiKTeX). I sent the RStudio team a feature request to add an option to be able to run Sweave in the main environment (perhaps while maintaining the default of running it in a separate environment).
