Thread-topic: generic factor levels

Do you know if there is a way to show the specific names of the factor levels in the coefficients matrix that is produced by:

fit1<-glm(DEFAULT~RATING+SECTOR,family=binomial(link=logit),data="">
summary(fit1)

The default coefficient matrix just has generic labels:  "RATING1, RATING2, . . . SECTOR1, SECTOR2, . . . "
And, so, it is hard to use the results in a practical way, to tell the story of the data.
