So the time has come for me to face the fact that I have no time to maintain pgfSweave. It was recently archived because I didn’t make necessary changes to comply with some CRAN policies. SO, I need someone to step up to the plate to make some tweakes, put it back up on CRAN [...]
I just uploaded version 1.2.1 of pgfSweave, and I think it is just great! The most notable new feature is the use of the TikZ externalization library list and make feature instead of the pgf \begingraphicnamed functionality. This has some important consequences: PGF 2.10 is required! This has been out for some months now but [...]

This release adds a few new features and fixes some bugs The pesky Rplots.pdf file is not generated anymore Brand new vignette by Hans Ekbrand on the use of pgfSweave with large data sets based on this site.

Version 1.0.5 is now on CRAN. This version brings some bug fixes as well as two new features: Unlabeled code chunks are now allowed. The correct version of PGF is now checked for on startup. If the version is < 2.00, the package will fail to load. http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/pgfSweave/index.html

For speed, the package provides capabilities for “caching” graphics generated with Sweave on top of the caching funcitonality of cacheSweave. For style the pgfSweave package facilitates the integration of R graphics with [...]
The tikzDevice package provides a new graphics device for R which enables direct output of graphics in a LaTeX-friendly way. The device output consists of files containing instructions for the TikZ graphics language and may be imported directly into LaTeX documents using the \input{} command. The beta version of tikzDevice is now available here. An [...]
Development of the R package tikzDevice has been underway for about a month now. This package allows for the output of R graphics as TikZ commands. Charlie Sharpsteen and I have gotten it into an alpha stage. There is no real documentation but there is plenty of comments in the code. We have a R-forge [...]
