The knitr::kable() function does some internal setup, including determining the target format, and then calls an internal function using

  do.call(paste("kable", format, sep = "_"), list(x = x,
        caption = caption, escape = escape, ...))

I was interested in setting the `vlign` argument to knitr:::kable_latex, using this code:

  knitr::kable(head(mtcars), format="latex", align = "c", vlign="")

If I debug knitr::kable, I can see that `vlign = ""` is part of list(...).  However, if I debug knitr:::kable_latex, I get weird results:

  > debug(knitr:::kable_latex)
  > knitr::kable(head(mtcars), format="latex", align = "c", vlign="")
If I do this in my R v4.3.1 on linux, I get:

> debug(knitr:::kable_latex)
> knitr::kable(head(mtcars), format="latex", align = "c", vlign="")
Error in kable_latex(x = c("Mazda RX4", "Mazda RX4 Wag", "Datsun 710",  :
  unused argument (vlign = "")

By looking at args(knitr:::kable_latex), I see 2 similar arguments 'valign' and 'vline' but no 'vlign'.
Can it be just a typo in your code?

      escape = TRUE, vlign = "")

  [rest of function display omitted]

I see here that vlign = "" is being shown as an argument. However, when I print vlign, sometimes I get "object not found", and somethings I get

  Browse[2]> vline
  debug: [1] "|"
Here again, 'vline' is used on purpose instead of 'vlign'?

Best,
Serguei.


(which is what the default value would be).  In the latter case, I also see

  Browse[2]> list(...)
  $vlign
  [1] ""

i.e. vlign remains part of the ... list, it wasn't bound to the argument named vlign.

I can't spot anything particularly strange in the way knitr is handling this; can anyone else?  My sessionInfo() is below.
