TOPS nged BRL-CAD BRL-CAD MGED Commands
tops Displays a list of all the top-level objects in the current database.
`tops` -a

## DESCRIPTION

Displays a list of all the top-level objects in the current database. The top-level objects are all those objects that are not referenced by some other combination. The hierarchical structure of BRL-CAD databases usually means that there will be a top-level object that includes all (or at least most) of the objects in the database. The -a option will show hidden objects.

## EXAMPLES
