 comment vim on Rnw (sweave) files: how to indent <<>>== properly?
@Seamus: thanks for the comment. The procedure is to get R to scan the file, using the "Sweave" command. That command passes all normal text through to a .tex file, except for blocks that start with ^<<.*>>== (a regular expression that starts at column 1). In other words, R demands that these codes start at column 1 of the file. This is by design, because it lets you enter such content at other columns without triggering Sweave. (By the way, what happens for these special blocks is that R runs them, and it puts the R output into the tex file.)

 comment how to cause unix 'make' to know how many times to run *tex
@Yannick: Thanks. I like make because I'm doing a lot of extra things in there, besides the *tex work. Maybe I should use latexmk and make together, though.
