Synopsis:

\graphpaper(x_init,y_init)(x_dimen,y_dimen)
\graphpaper[spacing](x_init,y_init)(x_dimen,y_dimen)

Draw a coordinate grid. Requires the graphpap package. The grid’s origin is (x_init,y_init). Grid lines come every spacing units (the default is 10). The grid extends x_dimen units to the right and y_dimen units up. All arguments must be positive integers.
