Thanks Duncan -- I'm running R 2.11 and ??texify gets me no recognition.

At the moment I'm trying to get something that works -- I'm not nearly to
the point of fancy.  I solved my Sweave.sty problem although I'm still not
managing to generate the graph in the demo file.  But maybe I should make
that a separate question.
