This may sound like a dumb question, but I'd like to know where is the .tex file saved, when I compile a pdf document from a Rmd file, using RStudio server. I added the keep_tex option, so the header of Rmd looks like this :
---
output:
pdf_document:
keep_tex: yes
---
Then when I compiled, the output looks like this

label: plot
processing file: test.Rmd

I'd like to find the intermediate .tex file (or test.knit.md), and do a bit of editing. Except it is no where to be found. Not in the working directory, or /home/myusername/, or /, or /tmp/Rtmpb1x3Q0/. I'd really appreciate it if someone has the answer.

By default, the RStudio IDE opens a preview window to display the output of your . Rmd file. However, you can choose to display the output in a dedicated viewer pane. To do this, select “View in Pane” for m the drop down menu that appears when you click on the “Run Document” button (or “Knit HTML” button).
To open a new file, click File > New File > R Markdown in the RStudio menu bar. A window will pop up that helps you build the YAML frontmatter for the . Rmd file. Use the radio buttons to select the specific type of output that you wish to build.
An RMD file is an R Markdown file created using RStudio, an open-source Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for the R programming language. It contains YAML metadata, Markdown-formatted plain text, and chunks of R code that, when rendered using RStudio, combine to form a sophisticated data analysis document.
In R Studio Open the R Markdown file in RStudio, and then select the Export to RCloud notebook item from the Addins menu. This will open a new tab or window in your default browser, with a form. Select or type in the URL of your RCloud installation, and click on Export.
Actually, this first line in the console
/usr/lib/rstudio-server/bin/pandoc/pandoc test.utf8.md --to latex --from markdown+autolink_bare_uris+ascii_identifiers+tex_math_single_backslash-implicit_figures --output /tmp/Rtmpb1x3Q0/preview-3bfe24922427.dir/test.tex --template /home/myusername/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.1/rmarkdown/rmd/latex/default.tex --highlight-style tango --latex-engine pdflatex --variable 'geometry:margin=1in'
told us that the output .tex file is in /tmp/Rtmpb1x3Q0/preview-3bfe24922427.dir/test.tex
Somehow I did not find the file last time, but on a recent instance, the .tex file is actually there, so that answers the question.
