One additional comment, which is that Jakson Aquino took over the enhancement
and maintenance of the original CrossTable() function about a year ago. That is
now in his 'descr' package on CRAN, even though the earlier version is still
present in 'gmodels'. I have not used the function myself in a number of years
and Jakson volunteered via offlist communications to take it on in order to
introduce some enhancements, including the further separation of a print method
for the function. I don't know how far along he is in the process, so it may
take some further investigation.
