22 * Fixed logicals bug. (Req #1911)
23 * Changed implementation of centering of tables. Instead of
24 inserting a centered environment, now a \centering command is
26 * Allow for margin tables as possible with document class

28 produced by margintable.Rnw which is in inst/doc. (Req #2168)
29 * Added "timestamp" argument to print.xtable(). Set it to NULL
30 if no timestamp is desired. (Req #2246)

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

65 will typically leave unchanged between tables.

67 * Added examples using the new arguments to the vignette.
