I set the value of xdvicmd correctly for the pdf viewer on my machine.  It
would be possible
to use options()$pdfviewer instead.  That is part of the smoothing that I
have implicitly
asked Charles and Frank to do.  Also, to make things more automatic.
Notice that I didn't quite get my function into the Hmisc environment
and that is why you need the awkward phrase
    show.dvi(dvi(x.tex <- latex(x)))
instead of the smooth phrase
    latex(x)
