The standard stats::kruskal.test module allows to calculate the kruskal-wallis test on a dataset:

>>> data(diamonds)
>>> kruskal.test.test(price~carat, data=diamonds)

Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test

data:  price by carat by color 
Kruskal-Wallis chi-squared = 50570.15, df = 272, p-value < 2.2e-16

this is fine, it is giving me the probability that all the groups in the data have the same mean.

However, I would like to have the details per each pair comparison, like if diamonds of colors D and E have the same mean price, as some other softwares (SPSS) do when you ask for a Kruskal test.

I have found kruskalmc from the package pgirmess which allows me to do what I want to do:

> kruskalmc(diamonds$price, diamonds$color)
Multiple comparison test after Kruskal-Wallis 
p.value: 0.05

However, this package only allows for one categoric variable (e.g. I can't study the prices clustered by color and by carat, as I can do with kruskal.test), and I don't know anything about the pgirmess package, whether it is maintained or not, or if it is tested.
