% Format is a style option which allows the printing of floating point
% numbers in fixed format.  The argument is the counter to use.  The
% optional first argument if the power of ten to multiply counter by.  The
% default is 0.  An integer is produced if power is nonnegative.
% Otherwise, at least one digit appears before decimal point and exactly
% -power digits after decimal point.  Restriction: abs(power)<=6.
% 
% Example: label an axis with -1.0, -0.8, -0.6, ... 1.0
%     \newcounter{axis} \setcounter{axis}{-10}
%     \multiput(...)(...){11}{\format[-1]{axis}\addtocounter{axis}{2}}
