Argument: <interval>
Description: interval between tick marks
Options: real numbers
Default: automatically determined

state object and resource file. See 
"ahelp chips" for further
details.
 
chips> SPLIT 2
chips> D 1 CURVE data/fit.dat
chips> D 2 CURVE data/residuals.dat
chips> D 1 TICKS 1.0
The curves are plotted in two drawing areas, then the tick spacing of
drawing area 1 is changed to 1.0 for both axes.
 
chips> D 2 TICKS X 2.0
chips> D 2 TICKS Y 0.5
The first command changes the interval between tick marks on the
X-axis of drawing area 2 to 2.0.  The Y-axis tick marks are changed to
have a spacing of 0.5.
 
chips> SPLIT GAP 0.05
chips> D 1 TICKS MIN X 0.5
chips> D 1 TICKS MAJ Y 0.5
chips> D 2 TICKS MAJ X 1.0
chips> D 2 TICKS MIN X 0.5
The drawing areas are first  separated by a small amount (0.05).
The command D 1 TICKS MIN X 0.5 adds minor tick marks with spacing
0.5, to the X-axis of drawing area 1.  The interval between the Y-axis
major tick marks of that area are then changed to 0.5.  Similar
commands are applied to drawing area 2.
