This blog is updated daily.
A general description is here.
‘Sweave()’ has options to produce PNG and JPEG figures, and to use a custom function to open a graphics device (see ‘?RweaveLatex’). (Based in part on the contribution of PR#14418.)
The default for ‘Sweave()’ is to produce only PDF figures (rather than both EPS and PDF).
Environment variable ‘SWEAVE_OPTIONS’ can be used to supply defaults for existing or new options to be applied after the Sweave driver setup has been run.
The Sweave manual is now included as a vignette in the ‘utils’ package.
‘Sweave()’ handles ‘keep.source=TRUE’ much better: it could duplicate some lines and omit comments. (Reported by John Maindonald and others.)

There are improvements in the way ‘Sweave()’ and ‘Stangle()’ handle non-ASCII vignette sources, especially in a UTF-8 locale: see ‘Writing R Extensions’ which now has a subsection on this topic.

‘tempfile()’ has an extra argument ‘fileext’ to create a temporary filename with a specified extension. (Suggestion and initial implementation by Dirk Eddelbuettel.)
