[R] Rearranging variables in table in non-alphabetical (manually specified) order

[André Júng]

Dear all,

I'm trying to rearrange variables in a table in a custum order for using it with levelplot. So far I could only find examples showing how to sort alphabetically. Here is a short example: 

a <- c("Anna","Anna","Michael","Klaus","Klaus","Anna","Fritz") 

b <- c("Schnitzel","Pommes","Pommes","Schnitzel","Wurst","Schnitzel","Schnitzel") 
food <- matrix(c(a,b),7)
as.data.frame(food) -> tmp 
as.data.frame(table(tmp)) -> X
levelplot(X$Freq ~ X$V1 * X$V2,xlab="people",ylab="food") 

Food is now ordered: Pommes, Schnitzel, Wurst.
But I need: Schnitzel, Pommes, Wurst. 

How can I define the order? I'm happy about every suggestion. 

Thanks in advance! 
Andre
