[Rd] R CMD Sweave versus Sweave() on Windows

[Kasper Daniel Hansen]

.Renviron is not being read when you do R CMD ...  This is documented,
but still puzzling to me.  I solved this by using
  Sys.setenv("SWEAVE_STYLEPATH_DEFAULT" = "TRUE")
in my .Rprofile (which is being read by R CMD ...).  If you were on
linux you could also put it inside your shell profile (like ,.bashrc).

That is the hard-coded path to Sweave.sty is included in the resultant tex-file, whereas if the Sweave file is processed from cmd.exe as R CMD Sweave foo.Rnw, only \usepackage{Sweave} is included.
