Summary
Moves the text cursor to the start of, or to a specific position within, either the current style tag, a specified text stream, or the first text stream on the current page.
Example extract

Both ttop and " (double quote) have a similar effect. If you only issue the macro ttop you will go to the top of the stream whereas " (double quote) will go to the top of the style previous to the cursor position, for example:

 ttop "pc1 3
 "pc1 5

Syntax (SVNNA)
ttop  Ø:i?  stream name:t?  startpos:n?  endpos:n?  )
Ø:i

Moves your text cursor to the top of the first text stream on the page.

Will display the current level of style or reference in the edit bar.
Will move back up to the previous level of style or reference and display it in the edit bar.
stream name:t

Name of the text stream. This can be any 3B2 tag which contains text, e.g. a reference tag, an index tag, etc. If you leave stream name blank, but use a " (double quote) character, 3B2 will go to the start within the current paragraph's style tag, for example:

 ttop "

or:

 "
startpos:n

The position within the text to which the text cursor should move. This is the numeric position of the character as shown at the top of the edit bar. If startpos is followed by endpos the range of characters between startpos and endpos will be selected.

endpos:n

The position within the text stream at which the selection started with startpos should end.

Example

You can use ttop to examine the contents of any sort of text stream. In the example below the text cursor is moved to the top of a printer control stream called pc1.

 ttop "pc1
