I need to have a counter reset each time a new page starts. As I don't find a page counter to do it for me (with counter groups) and as I am making heavy use of labels, I could compare the page-ref of the previous label with the page-ref of the new label - except that <equal> doesn't seem to work when applied to a pageref.

How can I extract the page-number as a string (or number?) from a pageref? unquote or eval don't seem to do it, and plus can't be applied to it.

A pagereg doesn't seem to be a de-composable tree.

WHats the best way to reset a counter when a new page starts?

Also, I note, when typing \not it becomes <neg| which doesn't work in if statements very well, I get errors and have to cut-n-paste via a text editor to change the <neg back to <not

I tried:

<assign|zpageno|<macro|pr|<extern|(lambda (pr) `(force-string (car pr)))|<quote-arg|pr>>>>

<zpageno|<pageref|zix>>

But it renders as:
<force-string|<car|?>>

I'm guessing I can't use these in a lamda?
