Pages at the front of some books. These are usually characterized by page
numbering that is by Roman numerals or by alphabetic characters instead of Arabic
numerals. In the Plextalk, these are recorded as front pages. You cannot use the
Page Key to move by through these pages; however, you can select a page by
level and move with the 4 and 6 keys.

begins with the phrase “1 FEATURES OF THE PLEXTALK” is referred to as a
heading.
