16 HTML5, part of feature request. (#5879)

31 inserting a centered environment, now a \centering command is
33 * Allow for margin tables as possible with document class

35 produced by margintable.Rnw which is in inst/doc. (Req #2168)

48 * Added some vectorization code to improve performance.

52 * Included "print.xtable" in the exported methods in the NAMESPACE file.

67 * Added "X" as an allowed alignment value in the "align()"
69 * Changed the "print.xtable()" arguments to use "getOption()"

71 since "print.xtable()" has a lot of arguments that the user
72 will typically leave unchanged between tables.
73 * Added an "is.null()" check on the "table.placement" argument.
74 * Added examples using the new arguments to the vignette.
77 * Allow "table*" as a value for "floating.environment" in print.xtable().
