## 12.D. The Procedure Page 

As a convenience for formatting tt xtfiles, Pascal has a predefined Page procedure. Page (F) is intended tn cause subsequent text written on F to appear on a new "page" (if F ii, printed or displayed, etc.). 

Page (F) causes an implemenlation-defined action on the file F. In most implementations, Page (F writes the appropriate control characters (such as an ASCII Form Feed) to cause the desired effect. 

Noles: If Page (F) is invoked and the last operation on F was not Writeln (F) then Page (F) pert,)rms an implicit Writeln (F) as its first action. F must be defined an( I in generation mode or else Page (F) is an error. The effect of reading II file F to which Page (F) has been applied is implementation-depenclent.
