 rate_dataset::get_scaling
        Return scaling information on a rate dataset.

 Usage:
        scale=dsid->get_scaling()

 Keywords:
        option          Just return the scaling option
        trange          Just return the time range (JD)
        range           Just return the rate (flux) range.
        lrange          Just return the latitude range
        drange          Just return the distance range
        axis            Just return what is plotted on the X axis.
        date            Just return whether to use date or DOY format
        xoffset         Just return the offset on the X-axis
        exact           Just return whether to force exact X range
        reverse_negative_latitude       Just return whether
                                        negative-only latitude plots
                                        are reversed.
        logarithmic Return whether the plots are log or linear.
        dist_logarithmic Return whether distance axes are log or linear.
