[R] format a matrix as fractions?

[arun]

library(MASS)
 fractions(outer(1/seq(1:3), 1/seq(1:3)))
#     [,1] [,2] [,3]
#[1,]   1  1/2  1/3 
#[2,] 1/2  1/4  1/6 
#[3,] 1/3  1/6  1/9

Is there some way to format a matrix of fractions as fractions?  I think 
I've seen this somewhere,
but search on Rseek came up empty.

Example:

> outer(1/seq(1:3), 1/seq(1:3))
           [,1]      [,2]      [,3]
[1,] 1.0000000 0.5000000 0.3333333
[2,] 0.5000000 0.2500000 0.1666667
[3,] 0.3333333 0.1666667 0.1111111
>

should print as

       1     1/2     1/3
     1/2    1/4     1/6
     1/3    1/6     1/9

TIA
