Please feel free to change the layout of this file, I'm just putting
|
|
|
|
this here to get things started.

** objectives
|
|
|
|
First and foremost, what do we want to accomplish?

|

|
|
|
|
Just to get this out there, there seem to be four kinds of
|
|
|
|
functionality we're trying to get here:
|
|
|
|
1. import data into R from org
|
|
|
|
2. easy editing of R code using r-mode from an org buffer
|
|
|
|
3. evaluate R code and make the output available for processing in an
|
|
|
|
org buffer
|
|
|
|
4. evaluate R code and format the output for export

|
Special editing and evaluation of source code in R blocks.
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately org-mode how two different block types. Source code
|
|
|
|
blocks which look like the following allow for the special editing of
|
|
|
|
code inside of the block through `org-edit-special'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#+begin_src R
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#+end_src
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
dblocks, which look like the following allow for evaluation of the
|
|
|
|
code inside of the block by calling =\C-c\C-c= on the header of the
|
|
|
|
block. This is handy, as org-mode will automatically call
|
|
|
|
`org-dblock-write:dblock-type' where dblock-type is the string
|
|
|
|
following the =#+BEGIN:= portion of the line.

|
|
|
#+BEGIN: dblock-type
|
|
|
|
#+END:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that upper and lower case are not relevant in block headings.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I'm leaning towards using the =#+begin_src= blocks, as that is really
|
|
|
|
what these blocks contain is source code.
