It's the format example for a dictionary-style header. Ordinary running headers take the form <$paratext[paratag1,paratag2, ...]>, which tells FM to display the text of the first instance on the page of one of the listed pgf tags. For instance, <$paratext[Head1,Head2]> would display the text of the first Head1 or Head2 pgf on the page. Prepending the plus sign tells FM to display the _last_ instance on the page. For instance, <$paratext[+,GlossaryHead]> would display the text of the last GlossaryHead pgf on the page. HTH! Richard Richard G.
