				This command flushes the output buffer and stops the Tcl 
				script from sending any more data to the client.
				A normal Tcl script might use the
				<span style="font-family:monospace"><span class="command"><strong>exit</strong></span></span> command, but that cannot be used in
				Rivet without actually exiting the apache child
				process!
				<span style="font-family:monospace"><span class="command"><strong>abort_page</strong></span></span> triggers
				the execution of an optional AbortScript that has to be
				specified in the configuration. The value of the
				argument  ?<span style="font-family:monospace; font-weight: bold;">abort code</span>? can be retrieved with the 
				<span style="font-family:monospace"><span class="command"><strong>abort_code</strong></span></span> command during the
				execution of AbortScript or AfterEveryScript, allowing 
				the script to take appropriate actions in order to deal
				with the cause of the abort. 
			</p><p style="width:90%">
				When passed the argument <span style="font-family:monospace"><span class="command"><strong>-aborting</strong></span></span> the
				command returns 1 if abort_page
				had been called earlier in the request processing, thus
				providing a tool for code in AfterEveryScript to tell
				if the an abort condition took place.
