Sanitize Characters for LaTeX Outputs

Description

Certain characters in LaTeX code need to be escaped to prevent errors during processing. For example, % is the comment character in LaTeX, and needs to be escaped in order to render correctly.

Usage

sprinkle_sanitize(
  x,
  rows = NULL,
  cols = NULL,
  sanitize = NULL,
  sanitize_args = NULL,
  part = c("body", "head", "foot", "interfoot", "table"),
  fixed = FALSE,
  recycle = c("none", "rows", "cols", "columns"),
  ...
)

## Default S3 method:
sprinkle_sanitize(
  x,
  rows = NULL,
  cols = NULL,
  sanitize = NULL,
  sanitize_args = NULL,
  part = c("body", "head", "foot", "interfoot", "table"),
  fixed = FALSE,
  recycle = c("none", "rows", "cols", "columns"),
  ...
)

## S3 method for class 'dust_list'
sprinkle_sanitize(
  x,
  rows = NULL,
  cols = NULL,
  sanitize = NULL,
  sanitize_args = NULL,
  part = c("body", "head", "foot", "interfoot", "table"),
  fixed = FALSE,
  recycle = c("none", "rows", "cols", "columns"),
  ...
)

Arguments

`x`	An object of class `dust`
`rows`	Either a numeric vector of rows in the tabular object to be modified or an object of class `call`. When a `call`, generated by `quote(expression)`, the expression resolves to a logical vector the same length as the number of rows in the table. Sprinkles are applied to where the expression resolves to `TRUE`.
`cols`	Either a numeric vector of columns in the tabular object to be modified, or a character vector of column names. A mixture of character and numeric indices is permissible.
`sanitize`	`logical(1)`. Should the code for the cell be sanitized.
`sanitize_args`	A list of arguments to pass to `Hmisc::latexTranslate`
`part`	A character string denoting which part of the table to modify.
`fixed`	`logical(1)` indicating if the values in `rows` and `cols` should be read as fixed coordinate pairs. By default, sprinkles are applied at the intersection of `rows` and `cols`, meaning that the arguments do not have to share the same length. When `fixed = TRUE`, they must share the same length.
`recycle`	A `character` one that determines how sprinkles are managed when the sprinkle input doesn't match the length of the region to be sprinkled. By default, recycling is turned off. Recycling may be performed across rows first (left to right, top to bottom), or down columns first (top to bottom, left to right).
`...`	Additional arguments to pass to other methods. Currently ignored.

Details

This sprinkle is only recognized by LaTeX output. See latexTranslate for more details.

Functional Requirements

Correctly reassigns the appropriate elements of sanitize and sanitize_args columns in the table part.
Casts an error if x is not a dust object.
Casts an error if sanitize is not a logical(1)
Casts an error if sanitize_args is not a list
Casts an error if part is not one of "body", "head", "foot", or "interfoot"
Casts an error if fixed is not a logical(1)
Casts an error if recycle is not one of "none", "rows", or "cols"
