        !             3: The \textbf{xtics} and \textbf{ytics} tags can be inserted by selecting 
        !             4: the \textbf{Plot tics} item from the insert selection list of the 
        !             5: \textbf{gnuplot} tag.
        !             6: 
        !             7: The \textbf{xtics} and \textbf{ytics} tags have identical structure and the
        !             8: description presented here applies to both.
        !             9: 
        !            10: The tics tags allow specification of the following parameters:

        !            15: 
        !            16: Tic marks can be placed on the border or on the axes.  The images below
        !            17: illustrate the effects of each of these options.

        !            23: ``Yes'' or ``No''.
        !            24: If the \textbf{location of tic marks} is set to ``border'' this parameter 
        !            25: determines if they are shown on both the top and bottom or right and left 
        !            26: sides of the graph.  The ``mirror'' tic marks are unlabelled.

        !            32: 
        !            33: The point in graph coordinates which to start making major tics.  
        !            34: This may be less than or greater than the lower limit for the axis.
        !            35: 
        !            36: \item \texttt{Place a major tic every}
        !            37: 
        !            38: The span, in graph coordinates, between each major tic mark.
        !            39: 
        !            40: \item \texttt{Stop major tics at}
        !            41: 
        !            42: This may be less than or greater than the upper limit for the axis.
        !            43: 
        !            44: \item \texttt{Number of minor tics between major tic marks}
        !            45: 
        !            46: The number of subdivisions to make of the span between major tic marks.
        !            47: Using a value of ``10'' leads to 9 minor tic marks.  The example below
        !            48: uses a value of ``5'' to produce 4 tic marks.
