In tdhock/animint2: Animated Interactive Grammar of Graphics

#' Cartesian coordinates with fixed relationship between x and y scales.
#'
#' A fixed scale coordinate system forces a specified ratio between the
#' physical representation of data units on the axes. The ratio represents the
#' number of units on the y-axis equivalent to one unit on the x-axis. The
#' default, \code{ratio = 1}, ensures that one unit on the x-axis is the same
#' length as one unit on the y-axis. Ratios higher than one make units on the
#' y axis longer than units on the x-axis, and vice versa. This is similar to
#' \code{\link[MASS]{eqscplot}}, but it works for all types of graphics.
