The Front Pages script line is the parent to all the script lines corresponding to elements associated with the "front" of a physical diary (glued-in blank page, title page, info pages, previous year calendar, etc…).

The "middle" or "core" of a diary being, of course, the dated pages generated by the Main DiaryGridLine.

As such, it is a simple container and only has 2 properties; force start and page count.

Because this script line occurs by definition at the very start of a Script, its Force Start property is rarely used (the first page of Front Pages always corresponding, in principle, to the first page of the output file).

See also: back pages.
