Hi, attached follows a patch to add a feature that I think it would be useful
having in the print.xtable function of the xtable package. It adds the option
'tabular.environment' to that function, which could be used to set an alternative
tabular environment, as the name already suggests.
Kevin,
I was glad to see your list. Some of the items were reasons for creating
some of the functions in Hmisc. summarize and mApply in conjunction with
llist handle labeling of output - this is actually quite tricky and the
Hmisc solution isn't perfect. Dropping unused factor levels by default
I wondered what was meant by `manuals', but I assumed it was not the help
system. Some packages do have manuals, usually installed from inst/doc
(and there is a vignette mechanism to provide manuals of this type).
If you do mean help pages, there are questions of whether more than one
language
