Could someone please alter the wording of the documentation of the 'xlim' argument
in plot.default? It currently includes "(min,max)" which led me to think that I couldn't use a specification like xlim=c(10,1). The basic issue is that there is
nothing (that I see) in the help page that suggests that one can specify the axis limits in a decreasing order and get a plot that corresponds to that. I had no idea
this was possible 'til I saw a posting on r-help yesterday. Ideally it would be nice
to somehow indicate this is possible, however at the least changing the "(min,max)"
to "(begin,end)" or something more reflective of what the xlim/ylim arguments represent
would be better.

Thanks!
Doug
