my.kable: Customized kable (table-making function for knitr)

In lcomm/ltools: Helper Functions

Description

Function to adapt kable function from knitr package to meet most of my table-making needs. This intentionally removes the table environment, so the tables do not float. Unfortunately, that means it's hit or miss on whether the caption stays near the table. This function is ugly

Usage

my.kable(kable.object, booktabs = TRUE, escape = FALSE, format = "latex",
  caption = NULL, ...)

Arguments

booktabs	Whether booktabs style should be used. Defaults to TRUE.
escape	Whether special LaTeX characters should be escaped. The default in kable right now is to escape these characters, but for some reason, escape never works quite like I want it to. Defaults to FALSE.
format	Type of table to be made. Defaults to "latex".
caption	Caption for the table. Defaults to NULL (no caption).
...	Other parameters passed to kable
kable.obj	Object (matrix or data frame) passed in to be kabled
