Default $main variable... where is it, and how can I use it?

I am trying to find a way to tell xCart to open home.tpl with one header or another, based on which page I'm linking in to. I described my problem here: http://forum.x-cart.com/showthread.php?t=25821

I'm not getting any replies on that thread, so striking out on my own, one of my ideas is to use $main to determine what kind of page I linked to, and then use that in an {if} statement to select which header, column format, etc, to use.

Can someone tell me how to use $main ? Where is it, how do I read it, and where does it get its value? Can I define other values that it can take?

Thanks.
