[R] R2HTML: output from for-loops

[Greg Snow]

The problem is probably due to what is considered a top level expression to be evaluated and how R2HTML processes these.

A simpler alternative is to use txtStart() or etxtStart() from the TeachingDemos package.  These work similar to HTMLStart(), but don't do the html markup (the etxt version does a little bit of markup, but you need to postprocess the file with enscript).

These functions being simpler handle the output in a different way and a quick test shows that the loop you show below does work with these.

Hope this helps,
