brew implements a templating framework for mixing text and R code for 
report generation. brew template syntax is similar to PHP, Ruby's erb 
module, Java Server Pages, and Python's psp module.

brew is written in R with no package dependencies, and it's not just for 
the web. It can be used as an alternative to Sweave in a limited 
context. See the brew-test-1.brew file in the distribution for some 
salient differences between the two. brew can also complement Sweave 
since it can be written to do conditional inclusion of or loop over 
Sweave code chunks.

The 1.0-1 version should show up on the CRAN mirrors shortly, but in the 
mean time it can be got from:

Best,

Jeff
