Hi R-people
I am trying to have R write latex-code.
"\begin{tabular}"
and
"\end{tabular}
do not produce similar results. I would like to something like
write("\begin{tabular} ,file=. . .)
.
.
.
write("\end{tabular},file=. . .)
regards
Helgi Tomasson

It is one of these cases , I think: \b means: Backspace! To write something with "\" in it, it is much safer to double the "\" every time.
