It's unclear to me what it is you actually want, so I can't tell you if 
it can be done.

What is "the default X and Y range"?  Please be sure to read "help 
xrange" and "help autoscale" before replying, so you can

gnuplot can display asymptotes via 'set arrow' commands or as additional 
curves in 'set parametric' mode.  It can't compute where the asymptotes 
should be, though.
