So far I have not succeded to make an index in a book I am typesetting. I write something like: \starttext \defineregister[index][indices] \index[Tantrum]Tantrums can be normal for \index[tantrum][tantrum+toddlers]toddlers. Young children have them for many reasons like being tired, feeling out of control, over-stimulated, or wanting something they can't have. General hints: Toddlers and preschoolers cannot regulate themselves because they don't yet know their own limits. \completeindex \stoptext And the message I get is: "index not found/processed". In the pdf appears a page with Index but no entries.

Prdefined, can be omitted.
\index[Tantrum]Tantrums can be normal for
\index{Tantrum}
\index[tantrum][tantrum+toddlers]toddlers. Young children have them for
\index{tantrum+toodlers}
many reasons like being tired, feeling out of control, over-stimulated, or wanting something they can't have. General hints: Toddlers and preschoolers cannot regulate themselves because they don't yet know their own limits. \completeindex \stoptext

Indeed. Question to the developers: given that our rule of thumb is "material within {} will be typeset; material within [] is for setups etc.," wouldn't it make sense to have the command as index[]? (Maybe with an alternative \index{} which will typeset the word AND put it in the index?) Thomas

Ok, but what am I doing wrong? Should I typeset \index[] or \index{}?
Or am I missing some trick? Or is this problem waiting for solution.
I have put both ways in my file and the page with Index is still empty.
