[R] Lattice: how to change the canvas size with Sweave

[Gerrit Draisma]

Oops,

I forget to write the I included the lines pdf()..(dev.off()
in the file pietje.R generated by Stangle.
And now I see that included pietje.tex in reality was named pietje.rnw
with pietje.tex the result from Sweave.

Apologies for this confusion
Gerrit.
