  • +1 on using R. But I can understand that there might be circumstances where SAS is required, e.g. by the customer.

  • But if i want to do training materials for SAS i need to use SAS :) it would be better to have something similar for SAS.

  • I think it is entirely possible to run SAS with knitr + markdown if you can define a proper language engine: yihui.name/knitr/demo/engines although it sounds ironic... Just note knitr is not restricted to R only; in theory you can use any languages as long as you know how to call them through R.

    Though it is not what you asked for, there is something akin for LaTeX and SAS: SASweave. homepage.cs.uiowa.edu/~rlenth/SASweave Perhaps the infrastructure could be adapted to output Markdown instead of LaTeX.

Geshi supports SAS. I think it does a pretty nice job. It is the highlighter in Wikimedia and is also available as a Perl module.



It shouldn't be too hard (famous last words :)) to connect Geshi to Markdown. You could obtain the plots by running a console SAS job. However, I think that as of 2012 (SAS 9.3), you would have to automate the workflow yourself. When one of the markup languages becomes dominant you will probably see more formal support.

    This link describes how to generate reports using SAS. From skimming the pdf it seems that you can integrate SAS analyses and text:




    With SAS procedures, SAS DATA steps, and SAS features such as the
    Output Delivery System (ODS) and the macro facility, you have the
    tools to succeed at writing programs that analyze your data and
    create reports

    • As I know in SAS ODS i can only report results of my analysis...
