3 * Changed tags in HTML to be all lower case, to be compatible with
4 HTML5, part of feature request(#5879)

11 * Fixed HTML gsub bug (#2795)
12 * Dealt with format.args bug (#4770). No code changes, but the
13 documentation of print.xtable was changed to warn of the problem
14 and to give a workaround as an example
17 * Fixed logicals bug (Req #1911)
18 * Changed implementation of centering of tables. Instead of
19 inserting a centered environment, now a \centering command is
21 * Allow for margin tables as possible with document class
22 tufte-handout. An example of usage is found in the vignette
23 produced by margintable.Rnw which is in inst/doc. (Req #2168)
24 * Added "timestamp" argument to print.xtable(). Set it to NULL
25 if no timestamp is desired. (Req #2246)
26 * Added "comment" argument to print.xtable(). Set it to FALSE
27 to exclude the version and timestamp comment. (Req #2246)
28 * Added "caption.width" argument. If not NULL then the caption
29 is placed in a "parbox" of the specified width. (Req #2247)
30 * Remove the check on whether the "floating.environment" is in a
31 list of known floating environments. Users want to use floating
32 environments from multiple options LaTeX packages (Req #2488,
36 * Added some vectorization code to improve performance.
37 * Let "caption" be length 2, in which case the second value is
38 the short caption used when creating a list of tables.
39 * Added "toLatex" method.
40 * Included "print.xtable" in the exported methods in the NAMESPACE file.
41 * Added "print.results" argument to "print" that can be used to

44 pass additional arguments such as "big.marks" to "formatC()".
45 * Added "rotate.colnames" and "rotate.rownames" arguments to
47 * Added "booktabs" argument to use the "\toprule", "\midrule", and
48 "\bottomrule" tags from the Latex "booktabs" package rather than

50 * Added "scalebox" argument to include a "\scalebox" clause around
51 the tabular environment with the specified value used as the
53 * Added "width" argument to allow specification of the width
54 value in tabular environments such as "tabularx".
55 * Added "X" as an allowed alignment value in the "align()"
57 * Changed the "print.xtable()" arguments to use "getOption()"
58 to check the options for a default value. This was suggested
59 since "print.xtable()" has a lot of arguments that the user
60 will typically leave unchanged between tables.
61 * Added an "is.null()" check on the "table.placement" argument.
62 * Added examples using the new arguments to the vignette.
65 * Allow "table*" as a value for "floating.environment" in print.xtable().
