 The <CODE>PAGE</CODE> command creates a new blank graphics page and brings
 it to the front, or brings an existing page to the front.</P>
<p>
 <ul>
 <li>If the page number <code>n</CODE> is greater than the current maximum
 page number, a new blank graphics page will be created.</li>
 <li>If <code>n</CODE> is greater than the current maximum page number plus one, the
 intermediate pages will also be created.</li>
 <li>If <code>n</CODE> is less than or equal to the current maximum
 page number, that page will be brought to the front.</li></ul></p>
<P>
 Every page has its own set of graph windows, each of which has its own set of characteristics,
 such as plot symbols, line widths, etc.
 If the <CODE>\INHERIT</CODE> qualifier is used, page number
 <CODE>n</CODE> will be chosen, and the graph windows for page
 <CODE>n</CODE> will be copies of the graph windows from page
 <CODE>m</CODE>. Any objects drawn on the graph windows on page 
 <CODE>m</CODE> are not copied, just the characteristics.</p>
<p>
 The graphics page that is visible is the active page.  Commands which involve graphics,
 such as <code><a href="../GraphCommand/graphcommand.htm">GRAPH</a></CODE>,
 <code><a href="../DensityCommand/densitycommand.htm">DENSITY</a></CODE>,
 <code><a href="../ContourCommand/contourcommand.htm">CONTOUR</a></CODE>,
 <code><a href="../FigureCommand/figurecommand.htm">FIGURE</a></CODE>, 
 <code><a href="../HardcopyCommand/hardcopycommand.htm">HARDCOPY</a></CODE>, etc. will draw to
 or process the active page.</p>
