Re: [NTG-context] error in seeindex sorting

The MWE \index{sample} \index{fun+games}\index{fun+stuff} \index{fun} \seeindex{fun}{sample} % with first subheading, not heading \seeindex{fun}{blah} % shown with heading (as it should be) ONLY if \index{fun} is commented out; otherwise it is not shown \seeindex{fun}{humbug} % not shown \seeindex{fun}{bug} % not shown \seeindex{fun+games}{entertainment} % not shown \placeindex[n=1] shows several problems in \seeindex. What is needed is fun 1 *see blah, bug, humbug, and sample* games 1 *see entertainment* stuff 1 As Hraban has indicated, there is some urgency here. For my part, I need x-refs for a book that I am trying to get off my plate and onto the publisher’s; so any thoughts on this or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

In latest beta, the error got bigger:

\starttext \index{sample} \index{Fun+games}\index{Fun+stuff} \seeindex{Fun}{sample} \seeindex{Fun}{bug} % missing! \seeindex{Fun}{blah} \placeindex[n=1] \stoptext

now gives

f Fun see blah games , see sample stuff s sample

i.e. * multiple seeindex references from the same point are incomplete * wrong "root" as before

Me again on registers.

If you have an entry with just subentries and a reference (seeindex) from the main entry to an *existing* other entry, the reference is sorted at one of the subentries. I.e. in the MWE we get

Fun games 1, see sample stuff 1

instead of

Fun see sample games 1 stuff 1

\starttext \index{sample} \index{Fun+games}\index{Fun+stuff} \seeindex{Fun}{sample} \placeindex[n=1] \stoptext

This prevents the completion of a scientific tome, so would be really nice if this could be fixed.
