FVWM: pages and desktops and the yellow brick road

How about a quick explaination (to save my lazy mind from having to read
the manuals.) of what a desktop and a page is?

Right now I have fvwm setup on SCO (amazing! it compiled.) With FvwmPager
0 2. Does this mean 4 desktops? I can't move from one to the other
without clicking on the Pager to do so. As this is SCO not Linux, I also
have only a single 1024x768 screen, with no scrolling or panning to make
it appear 1600x1200 or something. This setup works, but I think it'd be
nice to have six+ windows on a "page?" and just scrol arond rather than
switching to other desktops all the time.

Any tips on how to set things up better? Thanks!
