2 * Added function print.xtableMatharray to enable easy creation of
3 LaTeX code to enable an array to be included in a document.
4 * Added example to the gallery using sanitizing headings and row
5 names to produce large bold headings and italic row names.
6 * Added code from Martin Gubri, martin.gubri@framasoft.org, to produce
7 tables from the spatial econometrics packages, spdep, splm, and
9 * Extracted sanitize functions from print.xtable as stand-alone
10 functions, and exported them.
14 * autoformat, xalign, xdigits, xdisplay from Arni Magnusson, added
15 along with help file. Feature request #5686.
16 * New argument 'auto' in xtable(), to call xalign, xdigits, and
17 xdisplay at the time when xtable is created.
18 * Updated xtableGallery vignette, now with TOC and revised examples.
21 * Changed tags in HTML to be all lower case, to be compatible with
22 HTML5, part of feature request. (#5879)
23 * Fixed booktabs bug (#2309), more of an enhancement really. Updated
24 xtableGallery.snw to illustrate the change.
27 * Dealt with format.args bug (#4770). No code changes, but the
28 documentation of print.xtable was changed to warn of the problem
29 and to give a workaround as an example.
32 * Fixed logicals bug. (Req #1911)
33 * Changed implementation of centering of tables. Instead of
34 inserting a centered environment, now a \centering command is
36 * Allow for margin tables as possible with document class
37 tufte-handout. An example of usage is found in the vignette.
38 produced by margintable.Rnw which is in inst/doc. (Req #2168)
39 * Added "timestamp" argument to print.xtable(). Set it to NULL
40 if no timestamp is desired. (Req #2246)
41 * Added "comment" argument to print.xtable(). Set it to FALSE
42 to exclude the version and timestamp comment. (Req #2246)
43 * Added "caption.width" argument. If not NULL then the caption
44 is placed in a "parbox" of the specified width. (Req #2247)
45 * Remove the check on whether the "floating.environment" is in a
46 list of known floating environments. Users want to use floating
47 environments from multiple options LaTeX packages. (Req #2488,
51 * Added some vectorization code to improve performance.
52 * Let "caption" be length 2, in which case the second value is
53 the short caption used when creating a list of tables.
54 * Added "toLatex" method.
55 * Included "print.xtable" in the exported methods in the NAMESPACE file.
56 * Added "print.results" argument to "print" that can be used to
57 suppress the printing.

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

65 * Added "scalebox" argument to include a "\scalebox" clause around
66 the tabular environment with the specified value used as the
68 * Added "width" argument to allow specification of the width
69 value in tabular environments such as "tabularx".
70 * Added "X" as an allowed alignment value in the "align()"
72 * Changed the "print.xtable()" arguments to use "getOption()"
73 to check the options for a default value. This was suggested
74 since "print.xtable()" has a lot of arguments that the user
75 will typically leave unchanged between tables.
76 * Added an "is.null()" check on the "table.placement" argument.
77 * Added examples using the new arguments to the vignette.
80 * Allow "table*" as a value for "floating.environment" in print.xtable().
81 * Fix bug under which multiple logical columns were formatted incorrectly.
