[R] export glht to LaTeX

[Richard M. Heiberger]

The trick for latexing glht objects is recognizing that they are very complex.
It is necessary to isolate the part you want first,
then the latex() function in Hmisc works very well.

This example is based on one of the examples in ?glht

library(Hmisc)
library(multcomp)

  ### set up a one-way ANOVA
  amod <- aov(breaks ~ tension, data = warpbreaks)

  ### set up all-pair comparisons for factor `tension'
  ### using a symbolic description (`type' argument
  ### to `contrMat()')
  amod.glht <- glht(amod, linfct = mcp(tension = "Tukey"))

latex(confint(amod.glht)$confint, dec=3)

Look at
   str(amod.glht)
   str(confint(amod.glht))
   multcomp:::print.glht
   multcomp:::print.confint.glht
to see the details.
