And PL.rasch has what class? The manual for the 'ltm' package says that 'summary' "[s]ummarizes the fit of either grm, ltm, rasch or tpm objects."
Download the sources from https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/ltm_1.1-1.tar.gz Unpack the sources. Look at ltm/R/summary.rasch.R as that *computes* the summary and ltm/R/print.summ.rasch.R as that *prints* the summary. R is a wonderful wonderful tool with a great community and many fine statisticians contributing code. Statisticians are not software engineers, so it is no reflection on the professional competence of the author to say that neither of these files has any comments. On the other hand, the code is not very complex. The files are about one page each.
