SCALES command

Syntax: | `SCALES { minx maxx nlxinc miny maxy nlyinc } SCALES minx maxx miny maxy`
Qualifiers: | `\COMMENSURATE`
Defaults: | ``nlxinc=0` & `nlyinc=0` if not entered, non-commensurate axes`

The `SCALES` command turns off the autoscaling feature, as set by the `AUTOSCALE` characteristic, and sets the graph scales for subsequent graphs as follows:

`minx` | - | minimum value to display on the x-axis
`maxx` | - | maximum value to display on the x-axis
`nlxinc` | - | number of large (numbered) tic marks on the x-axis
`miny` | - | minimum value to display on the y-axis
`maxy` | - | maximum value to display on the y-axis
`nlyinc` | - | number of large (numbered) tic marks on the y-axis

If no parameters are entered, the scales will be frozen at their current values, and the current values of `minx`, `maxx`, `nlxinc`, `miny`, `maxy`, and `nlyinc` will be displayed.

If four (`4`) parameters are entered, the number of labeled tic marks on the x and y-axes, that is, `nlxinc` and `nlyinc`, default to zero (`0`), which means the program will choose "nice" numbers of increments.
