xtable in the library xtable does a good job if you are using latex to write up your results. For example:
> xtable(matrix(rnorm(20),5,5)) % latex table generated in R 2.8.0 by xtable 1.5-4 package % Fri Mar 20 13:48:53 2009 \begin{table}[ht] \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{rrrrrr} \hline & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 \\ \hline 1 & -0.45 & 0.25 & -0.42 & -1.64 & -0.45 \\ 2 & 1.39 & 0.06 & 0.08 & 2.12 & 1.39 \\ 3 & 0.49 & -0.78 & -1.28 & -0.45 & 0.49 \\ 4 & -0.11 & -0.81 & 1.48 & 0.30 & -0.11 \\ 5 & 0.12 & -0.11 & -0.14 & 1.50 & 0.12 \\ \hline \end{tabular} \end{center} \end{table} Or you could roll your own using for loops and the print function if this format isn't what you want.
