Hi, Same subject as in my previous post but a new question: On the ConTeXt wiki-page Command\index one finds: \index[...][...][…] […] text […] text […] text What is the first argument for? Could it somehow be used to provide a key? Another point, just for the sake of completeness: the example in my previous post yesterday, in ntg-context Digest, Vol 130, Issue 51, contains a small error, or rather an omission. Not damaging for the example. Corrected in the book. Best regards, Robert Blackstone

The key is used allow proper alphabetization of the entries, also for alternate formatting of some entries. I do not know about three (or two) argument variants. \index{entry} \index[key]{entry} \index[form::]{entry} \index[form::key]{entry} \index{form::entry} \index[key]{form::entry} \index[form::]{form::entry} \index[form::key]{form::entry} (p.176 of The Manual) -- Alan Braslau CEA DSM-IRAMIS-SPEC CNRS URA 2464 Orme des Merisiers 91191 Gif-sur-Yvette cedex FRANCE tel: +33 1 69 08 73 15 fax: +33 1 69 08 87 86 mailto:alan.braslau@cea.fr
