[R] How to get '\h' through print() or paste()?

Hello,

[really hoping not to ask something the 1001th time]

I need single backslashes printed for generating TeX-code.

That works:

  > print("\begin{tabular}")
  [1] "\begin{tabular}"

But \h seems to be interprated in some way:

  > print('\hline')
  [1] "hline"

Hm, trying to mask the backslash:

  > print('\\hline')
  [1] "\\hline"
  
But I need "\hline"...

Is there a way without generating strange code in a temporary file for
"sed"ing it? It would be also nice to get rid of the leading number in
brackets for each line of output...

Thanks,
Knut
