When I try to save a SWeave file, I get a message that I need to install TeX first. But neither Tex nor LaTeX seems to be available for R 3.0.3. > biocLite("TeX") BioC_mirror: http://bioconductor.org Using Bioconductor version 2.13 (BiocInstaller 1.12.0), R version 3.0.3.

Hello judyh, I think that R is trying to tell you that you should install Tex and/or LaTeX in your system and then compile R. That is how I compile and install my R development branchs in Linux. It may be the same for your operating system.

I guess it depends on what you are trying to do. Simply "saving" a SWeave file should not require any extra software. If you are trying to convert that file to a .tex or .pdf file, then yes, you need LaTeX, which is a separate program, not an R package. On Mac the place to get it is https://www.tug.org/mactex/ but beware that it's really big -- 2.3 GB.
