Dear Group,

I have made significant improvements to our Sweave template, have made the template self-contained (i.e., you can run it yourself and it will find the datasets it needs), and have included the output pdf file. This is at http://biostat.mc.vanderbilt.edu/SweaveTemplate . You will see in the pdf file the enhancements in how R code is pretty-printed, and I have added an example where some R function output is suppressed from the listing that Sweave typesets. The new template also suggests how to auto-document the computing environment at the end of the report, and how to properly reference R and add-on packages. Figures are centered (but not as nicely as Marc Schwartz' approach) and better defaults are used for axis label and tick mark label positioning.

Thanks to Romain Francois for providing the trick of suppressing parts of R output (replacing it with ...) and Peter Ruckdeschel for his excellent SweaveListingUtils package. Suggestions for further improvements are welcomed.

Thanks to some feedback from Philippe Grosjean today, I managed to make some progress on highlight. I posted the result of the template using both systems here:
