[Rd] termplot with uniform y-limits

[Bill.Venables at csiro.au]

Precisely.  Thanks Brian.

I did do something like this but not nearly so elegantly.

I suggest this become the standard version in the next release.  I can't
see that it can break any existing code.  It's a pity now we can't make
ylim = "common" the default.

Regards,
Bill V.

Is the attached the sort of thing you are looking for?
It allows ylim to be specified, including as "common".
