Thanks to Andy Liaw, James Jetton, Tony Rossini, Jonathon Baron, and Roger Peng, who succeeded in enlightening me. The situation, in short, is: (1) Hmisc is indeed available for R; you can get it from Frank Harrell's web page: http://hesweb1.med.virginia.edu/biostat/s/Hmisc.html (click on ``Software for R''). (2) The package xtable, which ***is*** listed amongst the contributed packages on CRAN, also does the sort of thing I want. Thanks to all. cheers, Rolf Turner rolf at math.unb.ca -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)
