I have a contour plot where the X axis has 3 times the range of the Y
axis. I want the contour plot to indicate this by making the plot 3
times wide as it is tall.

Is there any *easy* way to do this? Most graphics packages let you
tell them if you want a 1:1 aspect ratio for the X and Y axes. But the
best I can find in IDL is to use device-specific stuff in the device
command or for X-windows, to resize the window by hand.
