R help - Feb 2010 - wrap long lines in table using "latex" in Hmisc

Hi list,

Is there a way to control long-line wrapping in a table using "latex"
function in Hmisc or any other functions?? It seems I can't find any
examples.

Thank you very much!

Hi Tao,
Just set the appropriate *.just argument, e.g.:

Dat <- data.frame(x1 = rep("this value consists of a long string of
text", 5), x2 = rep("this value consists of an even longer string of
text", 5))

library(Hmisc)
latex(Dat, col.just = rep("p{1in}",  2))

You can also set justification for column headings, column group
headings etc. See ?latex for details.

Best,
Ista
