push

Use the push command to save the current ADEdit context—its bindings and selected objects in memory—to a context stack. This command leaves the current context in place, so all current bindings and selected objects remain in effect in ADEdit after the push.

This command is useful for Tcl scripts that use subroutines. You can use the push command to save the context before it’s altered in the subroutine. You can then use the pop command to retrieve the saved context when the subroutine returns.
