Well, I got it working, after much trial and error. I *do* need to do
group_nr=i0, but at a level higher: in the 'main' template. So for
anyone coming across this via Google, this template works:


group test;

inner() ::= <<
  Page <group_nr>.<i0>
>>

outer(group_nr) ::= <<
Group <i0>
<it.Pages:inner();separator="\n">
>>

main(all_pagegroups) ::= <<
<all_pagegroups:outer(group_nr=i0);separator="\n">
>>


cheers,
