prGetDescHeader

Helper for [getDescriptionStatsBy] that retrieves the basic
header names.

Tools for making the descriptive "Table 1" used in medical
articles, a transition plot for showing changes between categories
(also known as a Sankey diagram), flow charts by extending the grid package,
a method for variable selection based on the SVD, Bézier lines with arrows
complementing the ones in the 'grid' package, and more.

<dl><dt>by</dt>
<dd>The variable that you want to split into different columns</dd>
<dt>html</dt>
<dd>If HTML compatible output should be used. If <code>FALSE</code>
it outputs LaTeX formatting</dd>

<dd>Set to <code>TRUE</code> if you want to add a header count,
e.g. Smoking; No. 25 observations, where there is a new line after the
factor name. If you want a different text for the second line you can
specifically use the <code><a href="/link/sprintf?package=Gmisc&version=3.0.3" data-mini-rdoc="Gmisc::sprintf">sprintf</a></code> formatting, e.g. "No. %s patients".</dd>
<dt>already_table_format</dt>
<dd>Just a boolean as we use this in the total column</dd></dl>
