This is a helper function to update the alignment (justify parameter in pandoc.table) of the next returning table. Possible values are: centre or center, right, left.
set.alignment(
default = panderOptions("table.alignment.default"),
row.names = panderOptions("table.alignment.rownames"),
permanent = FALSE
)character vector which length equals to one (would be repeated n times) ot n - where n equals to the number of columns in the following table
string holding the alignment of the (optional) row names
(default FALSE) if alignment is permanent (for all future tables) or not. It's cleaner to use panderOptions instead.
