For the really gory details, here's how EPM implements this:

compile if EVERSION >= '5.60'
defc pagebreak
-- I put a form feed character there for the dual purpose of somewhat
-- supporting page breaks in raw mode and to allow the attributes to be
-- placed at column 2 rather than column 1. My selection of a chr(12)
may
-- actually mean that all page breaks need to be stripped after one is
done
-- printing because they may render the file invalid. (For example, I
don't
-- know if C allows a free FORMFEED character.)
insertline chr(12)
up
-- I place the attributes at column 2 rather than column 1 below,
because if
-- they are at column 1, line mark operations will not move them with
the line.
insert_attribute 6, 0, 1, 0, /*col:*/ 2, .line
insert_attribute 6, 0, 0, 0, /*col:*/ 2, .line
compile endif
