you need to double the backslashes, as in cat("\\hline \n");flush.console() as in > cat("\\hline \n");flush.console() \hline The warning when using just one kind of hints at what is going on: > cat("\hline \n");flush.console() hline Warning messages: 1: '\h' is an unrecognized escape in a character string 2: unrecognized escape removed from "\hline \n" You may want to take a look the packages Hmisc and xtable, which both have great facilities for doing latex output from all kinds of R objects.
