At one point I did try tinkering with dots but never did get it to
work just right. so substituted something simpler and easier.  It has
been replaced with this syntax:

If on page one.two.three

[[=page]] => one.two.page (sister link)
[[>page]] => one.two.three.page (child page)
[[<page]] => one.two.page (sister link)
[[<<page]] => one.page (aunt link)

= and < are equivalent. I suppose there might be better options, but
as best I can tell, this is the current code.
