YT2,100,8,20,20
Draw an X axis with tick marks as specified. There are two "styles"
`s` of input available, which determine how the distance `d` parameter
is interpreted.
SOMETHING SETS SPEED | parameter | function |
CH - ??? -- no params |-----------|---------------------------------------|
PM - Point Marking -- 1 param | s | style |
PS - pen select | d | distance |
PV - ??? - 1 param | n | number of tick marks |
| a | length of tick mark above the axis |
| b | length of tick mark below the axis |
If the `s` parameter is set to 1, then the distance is interpreted as
the length of the entire axis. If `s` is set to 2, then the distance is
interpretes as the length of the space between adjacent tick marks.
Params: 5
### Y-axis ticks (YT)
```
YTs,d,n,a,b
```
Draw a Y axis with tick marks as specified. The parameters are handled
in the same manner as the `XT` command (see above).
Params: 5
### Clear/Reset (CH)
```
CH
```
Raise the pen and move the plotter head to its original position; usually used
at the end of a plot.
Params: 0
### Point mark (PM)
```
PMt
```
Draw a marker at the current position. The marker type is specified by the `t`
parameter. The marker size is determined by the font size setting specified by the
`LS` command; consider the markers as just special characters.
The various marker shapes are illustrated in the images below.

Params: 1
### Pen velocity (PV)
```
PVv
```
Sets the drawing velocity `v`, on a scale of 1-10, where 1 is slowest, 10 is fastest.
The default speed is 10.
Params: 1
### Slant lettering (SL)

Slants subsequent text by an angle specified by `θ` degrees.

Resets the error bit. If the error LED is lit, it should be extinguished.
RS will apparently accept some parameters, but it's unknown if this does anything.
