pop

Use the pop command to retrieve a previously-stored context of bindings and selected objects from the top of the context stack. This command replaces the current ADEdit context with the retrieved context. Popping a context from the context stack removes the context from the stack.

This command is useful for Tcl scripts that use subroutines. A push can save the context before it’s altered in the subroutine; a pop can return the saved context when the subroutine returns.
