[R] How to plot two dataset in one fig?

[Francisco J. Zagmutt]

If I understand your question, to superimpose two lines in a same plot, in 
the first call to plot() you want to set the plot(ylim) argument with a 
range that will fit both of your lines.  Then use lines() to add the second 
lowess line on the plot.  Or matplot() will automate the process for you.

Take a look at savePlot() to save your final figure.
