I understand that the current decision is to use the new summary system instead of the ftable/prop.table. I would like Danny/David to consider the possibility that both could be made available?

My argument is that this will be a much used feature. Now Ric was keen to make it easy for people to transfer data etc to RStudio without having the take the Instat object etc. This could be a parallel perhaps, namely that those who want to just do these sorts of tables could export their data and then do some quick tables, (and have R-Instat provide the R code that does not mean the R-Instat package need be used.

Having both might also be a good way to explain what can be done through the R-Instat system, that isn't possible with simple R.

For thought anyway. If this is plausible then it just implies for now that we don't throw the other stuff away yet. If we do decide to keep it, then the ftable dialogue needs to change quite a lot - so that is certainly not a 0.3 decision and may not be for 0.9..

We have the prop tables dialog hidden currently. Can we make a decision on this now?
