I want to subtract the group minumum of the value in each group
from the indidvidual values, replacing the original values of Press
(something like a groupwise sweep).

This almost works:

#-----------------------------------
PPress<-data.frame(Marker=as.factor(c(rep(1,12),rep(2,12))),
                   Chan=as.factor(rep(1:4,6)), Press=rnorm(24) )
attach(PPress)
by (Press,list(Marker,Chan), function(x) x-min(x))
#-------------------------------------

The data printed out those I need, but how do I
get these back into to PPress?
