How can you export a regression table from r with etable and without the table environment?

Is there a way to export a regression table from r with the etable function (from the "fixest" package) without the table environment? Hence, the latex code should not start with \begin{table} but with \begin{tabular}.

I know that it is possible with xtable and stargazer, but what about etable?

Solution

By default, the table environment is not present in etable's Latex exports unless there is a caption. This is very likely a package version problem.

Here is a MRE with fixest 0.10.4:

base = setNames(iris, c("y", "x1", "x2", "x3", "species"))
est = feols(y ~ csw(x.[,1:3]), base)

etable(est, tex = TRUE)
