     DESCRIPTION
          XmScaleSetTicks controls the number, location, and size of
          the tick marks on a Scale. Each tick mark is a
          SeparatorGadget oriented perpendicular to the Scale's
          orientation. For example, if the Scale is oriented
          horizontally, the tick marks will be oriented vertically.

          If you specify tick marks for a Scale and then change the
          Scale's orientation, you will have to do the following:

             o  Remove all the tick marks. To remove tick marks from a
                Scale, you must destroy (with XtDestroyChildren) the
                SeparatorGadget tick marks.  The first two children of
                a Scale are its title and scroll bar, and all
                additional children are tick marks.

             o  Recreate the tick marks by calling XmScaleSetTicks.

          scale     Specifies the Scale widget ID that is getting the
                    tick marks.

          big_every Specifies the number of scale values between big
                    ticks.

          num_medium
                    Specifies the number of medium ticks between big
                    values.

          num_small Specifies the number of small ticks between medium
                    values.

          size_big  Specifies the size (either width or height) of the
                    big ticks.

          size_medium
                    Specifies the size (either width or height) of the
                    medium ticks.

          size_small
                    Specifies the size (either width or height) of the
                    small ticks.
