Thank you for the report.  On Windows I recommend using latex()
slightly differently.  Use
      x.l <- latex(x)
> x.l <- latex(x)
> x.filename <- paste(search()[1], x.l$file, sep="\\")
> x.filename
[1] "c:\\HOME\\hh-user\\x.tex"

Now the file x.filename contains the information you want.
Insert the contents of that file into the larger latex file you
are writing.

This is how I normally use latex().  I do not need to see the latex
expansion of the individual x.


I see at least one bug in the Windows version of latex() from hmisc.
The bug is interfering with the direct production of a dvi containing
only the latex version of x.  It will take a while to compare this with
the R version and isolate and repair the bugs.
