[R] Removing display of R row names from list.

1. Please post in plain text, not HTML.

2. Please do your homework. Data frames (the class of the result of
dcast) **always** have row names. ?data.frame  for details.

3. Read up on S3 methods if you have not done so already (any good R
tutorial will tell you about them, including the "Intro to R" tutorial
that ships with R). Then see the "row.names" argument of
?print.data.frame  .


Cheers,
Bert
