[Tools] Trouble understanding a building block in FrameMaker

[Robert Evans]

Hi Rahul,

It's usually used for dictionary-style headings where you might want the
first occurrence of a particular tag on a left hand page to appear on
the heading of that page, and you want the last occurrence on the right
hand page to appear in the heading of that page.

The "+" sign just tells FrameMaker to use the last occurrence rather
than the more usual first occurrence.

This query is for all the FrameMaker gurus on the list.

I am having trouble understanding one of the building blocks used in
FrameMaker: *<$paratext[+,paratag]>*

Can anyone illustrate the function of this building block?

Best,
Rahul Prabhakar
