FORMATTING AN INDEX Creating a properly formatted index takes a certain amount of work (about 2 hours). - Type in your Executive (TEDIT (MAKE.IM.INDEX T NIL '(filenames) NIL)) - Save the resulting file in {ERIS}LoopsBeta>Ref>RefIndex-Raw.tedit. - Now start dithering. The task is the change all the separators in the file. For example, the index program returns pages in the form 1.2; 10.5,38; 18.3-4. The Index format we use is in the form 1-2; 10-5; 10-38; 18-3. Unfortunately, you can't make all the necessary changes in a global substitute, since many of the separators are also in the text and the comma requires that you repeat the chapter number. Here goes: -- Fix the commas. Do a Find on a comma (,). Everyhwere a comma occurs in a page number, change it to a semicolon (;) and repeat the chapter number and a dot before the page number. For example, 10.5,38 becomes 10-5; 10-38. -- Fix the dashes. Do a Find on a dash (-). Everyhwere a dash occurs in a page number, delete it and the following page number. -- Fix the period. Except for he form #., you can use a global substitute from a period to a dash (. to -). This takes about 20-30 minutes, as there about 700 substitutions. I really recommend saving the file at this point. - Hardcopy the index. Make whatever page breaks and other changes you feel are necessary. Make a final hardcopy and save the file. 2 ø 2 ø  TERMINAL MODERN T/K©ä„°2„szº
