yes, but we loose the possibility to use a 'simple' text editor. For example, I like to use emacs+ess to edit and evaluate R code, and to write my report in the same editor. I like the idea that the input format could be writen with a simple text editor, and the output format be chosen after. I

It is verry easy with xtable package to make your own xtable.class function, if the class was not implemented in xtable package yet. It would be wonderfull if odfWeave include a framework to make such things. Ps : I would like to know if there is an R project to include all existing format

Dear Max, If you have plan to add more table making facilities into odfWeave package, I suggest you base your work on Zelig, a R package that tries to provide a unified interface to many existing R statistical libraries, created by Gary King's team at Harvard. I see great potential in this

Hi Frank, I use Hmisc and Design in my research a lot, the LaTeX facilities are very handy. But I don't think they can work with OpenOffice document format (ODF), or did I miss something? Thanks. Shige On Jan 13, 2008 2:03 AM, Frank E Harrell Jr [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: ??? wrote: Dear

Dear All, I am new to odfWeave and was wondering if there are something similar to the xtable package that can automatically convert model coefficients into LaTeX/ODT tables? More generally, how do people who use odfWeave transform model results into tables? The odfTable does not seem to be able

One thing on my (neglected) to-do list for odfWeave is to create a general class called odf that can be used to create output for common models (lm, glm etc). The nice thing here is that the output from this function could write mixed output. For example, a short paragraph about the specified
