Yihui, Thank you for your contributions! It's especially impressive how you're continuing to develop LyX support and documentation of Sweave, even though in some sense knitr is a competitor. From what I have been reading, knitr has clear advantages. Are the following correct? 1. knitr will be in

That is not right, because the converters are not there if you do not re-compile LyX. Of course you can add the converters manually; see the changes in lib/configure.py at http://www.lyx.org/trac/attachment/ticket/7887/knitr.patch (further instructions on converters: section "For Windows Users" htt

The first version of knitr was just released to CRAN yesterday, so you will need to wait for one or two days for the Windows build on CRAN, and probably a few days for your local CRAN mirror to sync. As far as I can see, knitr has covered all the features in pgfSweave, so I do not plan to add a pg

Sweave works beautifully in 2.0.2, huge thanks to Yihui Xie et al. But the situation "beyond" Sweave seems problematic. Ticket #7887 is stalled. There's neither a pgfSweave module nor a knitr module. knitr is not even available for 2.24.1 for Windows. RFE: could we have pgfSweave support in 2.0.3?
