This one adds the labels:


D2Mah4 = function(y, x) {

 stopifnot(is.data.frame(y), !missing(x))
 stopifnot(dim(y)[1] != dim(x)[1])
 y    = as.matrix(y)
 x    = as.factor(x)
 man  = manova(y ~ x)
 E    = summary(man)$SS[2] #Matrix E
 S    = as.matrix(E$Residuals)/man$df.residual
 InvS = solve(S)
 mds  = matrix(unlist(by(y, x, mean)), byrow=T, ncol=ncol(y))

 f <- function(a,b) mapply(function(a,b)
   mahalanobis(mds[a,],mds[b,],InvS,TRUE), a, b)
 seq. <- seq(length = nrow(mds))
 names(seq.) <- levels(x)
 D2 <- outer(seq., seq., f)
}

#
# test
#
D2M4 = D2Mah4(iris[,1:4], iris[,5])
print(D2M4)
