PAGE command

Syntax: | `PAGE n PAGE\INHERIT n m`
Qualifiers: | `\INHERIT`
Defaults: | `\-INHERIT`

The `PAGE` command creates a new blank graphics page and brings it to the front, or brings an existing page to the front.

- If the page number `n` is greater than the current maximum page number, a new blank graphics page will be created.
- If `n` is greater than the current maximum page number plus one, the intermediate pages will also be created.
- If `n` is less than or equal to the current maximum page number, that page will be brought to the front.

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 `\INHERIT` qualifier is used, page number `n` will be chosen, and the graph windows for page `n` will be copies of the graph windows from page `m`. Any objects drawn on the graph windows on page `m` are not copied, just the characteristics.

The graphics page that is visible is the active page. Commands which involve graphics, such as `GRAPH`, `DENSITY`, `CONTOUR`, `FIGURE`, `HARDCOPY`, etc. will draw to or process the active page.
