I wish to reproduce a locally-weighted fit from (old-fashioned) lowess with 
(new-fangled) loess.

Although ?lowess advises that loess has different defaults, does anyone know 
how to set up loess so it does exactly the same as lowess did?

Fiddling about suggests setting loess(x, span = 0.8, degree=1) is fairly 
close for my data - but clearly not the same.

(I can't help feeling that with something basic like this, I've probably 
been unlucky in my archive/help searches so far.)
