\title{Object Summaries}
\description{
summary is a generic function used to produce result summaries of the results of various model fitting functions. 
The function invokes particular methods which depend on the class of the first argument.

\describe{
\item{object = "ANY"}{Any object for which a summary is desired, 
    dispatches to the S3 generic.}
\item{object = "Wave"}{The \code{\link{Wave}} object is beeing \code{show}ed, and an additional summary of the 
    \code{Wave}-object's (one or two) channels is given.}
\item{object = "Wspec"}{The \code{\link{Wspec}} object is beeing \code{show}ed, and as an additional output is given:
    \code{df}, \code{taper} (see \code{\link{spectrum}}), 
    and for the underlying \code{\link{Wave}} object the number of channels and its sampling rate.}
\item{object = "WspecMat"}{The \code{\link{WspecMat}} object is beeing \code{show}ed, and as an additional output is given:
    \code{df}, \code{taper} (see \code{\link{spectrum}}), 
    and for the underlying \code{\link{Wave}} object the number of channels and its sampling rate.}
