I’m looking for some LaTeX template for creating quality output. On R-bloggers I’ve bumped on Frank Harrel’s Rreport package. Due to my quite modest LaTeX abilities, only a user-friendly (and noob-friendly) interface should suffice. Here’s a link to an official website. I’m following the instructions, but I cannot manage to install an app. I use Ubuntu 9.10, R version is 2.10.1 (updated regularly from UCLA’s CRAN server), and of course, cvs is installed on my system.

Now, I’d like to know if there is some user-friendly LaTeX template package (Sweave is still to advanced/spartan for me). I’m aware that my question is quite confounding, but a brief glance on examples on Rreport page should give you a hint. I’m aware that LaTeX skills are a must, but just for now I need something that will suit my needs (as a psychological researcher).

Is there any package similar with Rreport?

    lyx? http://www.lyx.org/

    On Ubuntu: 

    sudo apt-get install lyx

    From the lyx page:

    LyX combines the power and flexibility
    of TeX/LaTeX with the ease of use of a
    graphical interface. This results in
    world-class support for creation of
    mathematical content (via a fully
    integrated equation editor) and
    structured documents like academic
    articles, theses, and books.
