I agree I will change this


I think you can simplify the addition of margins by using the "margin"-

It should work I will make some tests at nigth

I recently discoverd that round can be indicated in the parameters of HTML,
so is posible to use rk.print(x, digits=2)
I will change this when I get some time

I'm not part of the active developement team, I'm only make R functions or
modifications to the rkward plugins for my own use, but I want to share it
because I think that some one may need it. I still think that this plugin
must be considerd as a mock up, or something like this. It could be submited
to a repository of rkward plugins as a fork or a modification of the oficial
plugins, but not part of the default rkward package. I know that I'm only
learning how to write code in R and in java script, so my algorithms may not
be the most apropiated.

Besides, I finally make the .pluginmap file, so install the plugin should be
eassier. At now most of the items in the dialog has no effect on the output,
and I put it only to ilustrate which statistcs I planning to include. I will
try to do this job at nigth.
