Format ForestSearch Details Output for Beamer Two-Column Display

Captures forestsearch(details = TRUE) console output and splits it into two columns for readable beamer slides. Left column shows variable selection (GRF, LASSO, candidate factors); right column shows subgroup search, consistency evaluation, and results.

Usage

format_fs_details(
  fs_output,
  split_after = "Candidate factors",
  fontsize = "scriptsize",
  col_widths = c(0.48, 0.52),
  max_width = 48
)

Arguments

fs_output

Character vector of captured output lines from capture.output(forestsearch(..., details = TRUE)).

split_after

Character string (regex). The output is split after the block matching this pattern. Default: "Candidate factors" which splits after the candidate factor list.

fontsize

Character. LaTeX font size for the output text. One of "tiny", "scriptsize", "footnotesize", "small". Default: "scriptsize".

col_widths

Numeric vector of length 2. Column widths as fractions of \textwidth. Default: c(0.48, 0.52).

max_width

Integer. Maximum character width per line before wrapping. Long lines are wrapped at comma or space boundaries with a 4-space continuation indent. Default: 48 (suitable for half-slide columns at scriptsize).

Value

Invisibly returns a list with left and right character vectors. Side effect: emits LaTeX via cat() for use in a chunk with results='asis'.

Quarto Setup

No special LaTeX packages required. Works in any beamer frame without the fragile option.

Usage

In a Quarto beamer chunk with results='asis' and echo=FALSE, first capture the forestsearch output with capture.output(), then call format_fs_details(fs_output).
