"merge" on
page563
The merge object is mainly used in Control Scripts. It gives access to the
template with all of its contexts and sections. It doesn't give access to the
content of the sections. To change the content of a section, you would create
a script with a selector and use the results object in the script (see
"results" on page511).

external systems.

containing the HTML elements that match the given CSS selector.
