Hey Michael,

don't you have an easier question for someone who has just returned
from vacation? ;-)

Well... I don't quite see what you're after. Do you need to get the
exact spot where the story wraps to the next box on the next page?

"page break character": there is no such thing.

There are, however, two invisible characters: "next column" (ASCII 11)
and "next box" (ASCII 12). The first one forces the rest of the text
in the next column, which is in most cases the next box (when the boxes
have only one column). The latter forces the text in the next box (which
may be as well on the same page...).

Regards,

Hans
