A simple demo of rmarkdown's versatility for academic publishing. (Thanks to pandoc.)
To get this running you just need to install rstudio and pandoc-crossref, and
make sure the rmarkdown package is installed in R.
If you have make, you can use the Makefile, otherwise you can run the
commands in it from the shell. (Just replace $(SOURCE) with demo_paper).
So, to make a tex file, do Rscript -e 'rmarkdown::render("demo_paper.Rmd", "pdf_document")'
Building this will fail unless you install
pandoc-crossref, which you
need to make equation and figure refs work, anyway. The options eqnPrefix
and figPrefix specified above can be changed to your liking. If you don't
want to deal with it, just delete the line - pandoc-crossref and the
--filter above it.
