xsummary makes an HTML table (using xtable) and adds bold and underline formatting to highlight significant compositional differences.
The p-value is bolded if it is less than 0.05, and the percent common language effect size (CLES) is bolded if it is <= 40 or >= 60.
The mean (or median) difference is [underlined / bolded] if [only one of / both] the p-value and CLES pass these cutoffs.
The generated table is written to the console, and can be used in a vignette using the results = "asis" chunk option.
The function also returns (invisibly) the data frame used to make the table; this data frame differs from comptab by having row names added (alphabetical one-letter IDs for the datasets).
xsummary2 is an updated version that is used in the current vignettes in the package.
It shows negative numbers in bold (p-value and CLES are not shown).
xsummary3 is a further revision that shows GRAVY and pI instead of phylostrata; it is used in the osmotic_ vignettes.
