[R] stdev, skew, kurtosis, ACF from summary function?

[Vivek Rao]

The summary() function shows the min, median, mean,
max, and 25th and 75th percentiles, but not the
standard deviation, skew, and kurtosis (at least by
default). Is there are an option of summary() that
does this, or has someone written code for this?

Since the columns of my table are time series, I would
also like to display the autocrrelations of each
series up to a certain lag, as part of the summary.
Thanks.
