Tim Edwards a816da60f9 Updated the HTML command reference files to refer to magic version 8.3,
since all of the title images still had 8.2, and the title text still
said 7.3 or 7.4, having not been updated for a long time.

<H2>scalegrid</H2>
<HR>
Set the ratio of magic internal units to lambda units
<HR>
<H3>Usage:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<B>scalegrid</B> <I>a b</I> <BR><BR>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
where <I>a</I> and <I>b</I> are integers.
</BLOCKQUOTE>

<H3>Summary:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
The <B>scalegrid</B> command sets the ratio of magic internal
units to lambda units by rescaling the internal database and
appropriate technology parameters. The values <I>a</I> and
<I>b</I> are interpreted to mean that all positions in the
database should be multiplied by the factor <I>b</I> / <I>a</I>.
An equivalent meaning is that there should be <I>b</I> internal
units per <I>a</I> lambda units in the database. For example,
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<B>scalegrid 1 2</B>
</BLOCKQUOTE>
means 2 internal units per lambda, or an internal grid that is
twice as finely spaced as the default. The grid scaling can
be queried using the <B>tech lambda</B> command. Grid scaling
is interpreted relative to the current scale, so
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<B>scalegrid 1 2</B> <BR>
<B>scalegrid 1 2</B>
</BLOCKQUOTE>
results in 4 internal units per lambda.
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<H3>Implementation Notes:</H3>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<B>scalegrid</B> is implemented as a built-in command in <B>magic</B>.
