[R] Question on ploting multiple series on the same plot

[jim holtman]

What you are proposing is a reasonable way of reading all the files
into a list object were each element is a separate file.  You can then
iterate through the list to determine the range for the plot.  If the
data is of different lenghts, then what are you plotting against?  Is
it just a single variable that you are plotting as a sequence, or is
there a set of X/Y values?  You can use xlim/ylim to setup the initial
plot.
