The temp files will be in a directory /tmp/rkward-XXXXXXX/ on linux.
But I'll have to admit I have not even started thinking about
references to external files. I simply saved the current file to a
temporary directory, in isolation.

Not sure about the most elegant way to solve this. I suppose it may
mean that the input file should remain in its place (only with some
temporary name), and only the output file(s) should be written
somewhere else.

The R console preview? That one is mean for previewing plain .R
scripts (again, it does not really work as intended, right, now, but
essentially it should give you a preview of "Run all"), it will
certainly choke on R markup.
