   I am attempting to produce crosstabulations between two variables for 
subgroups defined by a third factor variable.  I'm using by() and 
CrossTable() in package gmodels.  I get the printing of the tables first 
and then a printing of each level of the INDICES.  For example:
library(gmodels)
by(warpbreaks, warpbreaks$tension, function(x){CrossTable(x$wool, 
x$breaks > 30, format="SPSS", fisher=TRUE)})
   Is there a way to change this so that the CrossTable() output is 
labeled by the levels of the INDICES variable?  I think this has to do 
with how CrossTable returns output, because the following does what I want:
by(warpbreaks, warpbreaks$tension, function(x){summary(lm(breaks ~ wool, 
data = x))})
thanks,
Chuck
