Sorry, but the documentation doesn't reflect the real meaning of nticks,
which is the same as in the plot-routine case. This is my fault, of course.
From the plot_options documentation about the nticks option:
"In plot2d, it is gives the initial number of points used by the
adaptive plotting routine for plotting functions. It is also the number
of points that will be shown in a parametric plot."
This is also true for explicit and parametric objects in draw2d, since
package draw depends on some functions defined in plot.lisp.
I'll fix the documentation for the draw case.
Thanks for this bug report.
