I was looking for an R function to turn a matrix into a LaTeX table;
did an R site search using Jon Barron's machine and turned up the
latex() function in the Hmisc package.
But the Hmisc package is an Splus package, and appears not to be
available for R --- there is no hint of it in the list of contributed
packages on CRAN.
I had a look at the Hmisc package (via statlib) and there was no hint
of its having been ported to R.
Yet the item that my search turned up has a header
latex {Hmisc} R Documentation
Can someone please explain to me what gives? If Hmisc is available
for R, how do I get it? If not, what is it doing having R
documentation?
cheers,
Rolf Turner

Can't answer your real question, but I'd also look at the xtable package. I'm doing wonders with it (+ Sweave, for writing stat sections for clinical trials protocol concept sheets, but that's even further off topic). best, -tony -- A.J. Rossini Rsrch. Asst.

But I think you want xtable.

I would recommend the xtable package from CRAN. I've used it numerous times for papers. I've never used the latex() function from Hmisc but I know that Hmisc is available for R and can be downloaded from http://hesweb1.med.virginia.edu/biostat/s/Hmisc.html -roger _______________________________ UCLA Department of Statistics rpeng at stat.ucla.edu http://www.stat.ucla.edu/~rpeng On Tue, 2 Jul 2002, Rolf Turner wrote:> > I was looking for an R function to turn a matrix into a LaTeX table; > did an R site search using Jon Barron's machine and turned up the > latex() function in the Hmisc package. > > But the Hmisc package is an Splus package, and appears not to be > available for R --- there is no hint of it in the list of contributed > packages on CRAN. > > I had a look at the Hmisc package (via statlib) and there was no hint > of its having been ported to R. > > Yet the item that my search turned up has a header > > latex {Hmisc} R Documentation > > Can someone please explain to me what gives?

Thanks for others for pointing out the home for Hmisc. I submitted Hmisc and Design to CRAN a few weeks ago and am looking forward to it being placed there.
