Specify output directory for R script with knit_hooks$set(purl = hook_purl)

I understand that we shouldn't purl() a chunk with knitrbut instead use knit_hooks$set(purl = hook_purl). That works, but it puts the R script in the working directory. I would like to put it in an R/ directory. It's probably due to my own incompetence, but I couldn't find anything about specifying the directory for the R script (I looked in the R documentation as well as several places online). Anyone have any ideas? I'm knitting from within RStudio, by the way.

You can generate the script under the current directory, and file.rename() it to the R/ directory.
