 rate_dataset::set_scaling
        Set up the plot scaling options on a rates dataset.

 Usage:
        dsid->set_scaling, rmin, rmax[, tmin, tmax]

 Arguments:
        rmin    float   The minimum rate (flux) to plot
        rmax    float   The maximum rate (flux) to plot
        tmin    float   The earliest time to plot (JD)
        tmax    float   The latest time to plot (JD)

 Keywords:
        automatic       If set, then scale each plot panel
                        individually, based on its range of values.
        uniform         If set, then scale all panels the same, using
                        the actual range of data.
        distance        If set, then plot data against distance if
                        available.
        latitude        If set, then plot the data against latitude if
                        available.
        time            If set, then plot the data against time.
        logarithmic     If set, then plot with a logarithmic y-axis.
        log_dist        If set, and distance is set as well, then plot
                        against distance with a logarithmic X axis
        absolute        If set, and latitude is set, then plot against
                        the absolute value of latitude.
        date            If set, then label time axes with date rather
                        than day of year (set to zero to revert).
        exact           If set, then make the x axis fit the data exactly.
        reverse_negative_latitude       If set, then show latitude
                                        plots that are all negative
                                        reversed.
