Hi Andreas --

This looks really nice. I especially like the little extras you put in - 
like OutputLatexOptionDocumentation

Maybe you should talk with Lou Hafer - he seems to be working on 
something as part of CoinUtils.

Any objection to moving this out to CoinUtils? It seems like a generic 
enough utility.

Thanks!
Matt

PS: I think, in general, COIN TLC (or ?) should think about scanning all 
the COIN project codes and see what "generic tools" are hiding 
underneath. Abstracting them and putting then in some utility library 
will help everyone in the long run.
