No support for minor and major ticks yet, but I can add it pretty
quickly, probably for the next release due out soon.  I just need a
little information.  How do grids interact with major and minor ticks?
I know major ticks are generally bigger and are labeled, and minor
ticks are smaller and not labeled, but I don't know how grid lines are
usually handled with respect to major and minor ticks.  If you have a
link to a canonical figure which uses major and minor ticks, I can
follow that example.
