[R] Automatic adjustment of axis ranges

[Andrew C. Ward]

Daniel,

I don't think it's possible to do exactly what you want using
the example you've given. You could either A) re-plot the
data with the new points, or B) make the axis limits large
enough to cope with data of "reasonable" magnitude.
Neither of these gives you the dynamic redrawing you
want, however.

Others may point you to some nifty Tcl or other GUI way
of doing that, which I will be keen to hear about.

Regards,
