element_refmark

Specify a reference mark (a symbol placed before or after entry text to
indicate cross-references; e.g. for footnotes) that can be added to
entries in a table.

Presentation-quality tables are displayed as plots on an R
graphics device.  Although there are other packages that format tables
for display, this package is unique in combining two features: (a) It is
aware of the logical structure of the table being presented, and makes
use of that for automatic layout and styling of the table.  This avoids
the need for most manual adjustments to achieve an attractive result.
(b) It displays tables using 'ggplot2' graphics.  Therefore a table can
be presented anywhere a graph could be, with no more effort.  External
software such as LaTeX or HTML or their viewers is not required.  The
package provides a full set of tools to control the style and appearance
of tables, including titles, footnotes and reference marks, horizontal
and vertical rules, and spacing of rows and columns.  Methods are included
to display matrices; data frames; tables created by R's ftable(), table(),
and xtabs() functions; and tables created by the 'tables' and 'xtable'
packages.  Methods can be added to display other table-like objects.  A
vignette is included that illustrates usage and options available in the
package.

element_refmark function

<dl> <dt>mark</dt>
<dd>Character string containing the character(s) to be used as the reference
mark.</dd> <dt>side</dt>
<dd>Character string indicating where the reference mark is to be placed:
"before" or "after" the entry text.</dd> <dt>raise</dt>
<dd>Logical scalar. If TRUE, the reference mark will be displayed as a
superscript, using <code>plotmath</code>. The default is TRUE except for
asterisk marks, since that character is already raised relative to other
characters.</dd> <dt>...</dt>
<dd>Additional arguments passed to <code>element_entry</code>. These can be used to
set other graphical properties of table entries at the same time as
setting the reference mark. However it is an error to set <code>text</code> or
<code>textspec</code> to anything other than NULL, since they are used
internally by this function.</dd> <dt>inherit.blank</dt>
