In MkII, one could configure the index to have different types of page entries, e.g. roman and italic, by using \setupregister, as in the example at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/setupregister. That doesn't work with a fairly recent MkIV (2014.05.17 beta).
I see that it's a long-standing feature request:
http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context%40ntg.nl/msg67495.html
So, it is probably not on the short-term feature list. But, if it is on the list, please let me know, as I'll keep using it for my textbook!
hm, it's already an old (mkiv) feature
Otherwise, I'll just make all the page entries the same style. The perfect is the enemy of the good, especially after 19 years...
(Right now with 2014.05.17 beta, using the feature, say as \index[definition::]{commutativity}commutativity, gives an entry alphabetized according to the "definition::" key.)
we have a better and mnore powerful mechanism now \defineprocessor[bf][style=bold] \defineprocessor[it][style=italic] \starttext \index{it->italic}\index{normal} This is a \index[bf->bold]{test with bold number}test. This is a less important \index{test}test. \placeindex \stoptext (see test suite registers/processors*) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
