One runs latex and makeindex as if there is just one index. No extra programs are required. We let makeindex and \TeX\ do the work. As we are using makeindex in a way that was never intended, some features of makeindex may not work anymore. Although this is not a book, we have chosen the book style for illustration. Let us say we want to use four indexes. First we choose tags to identify them. In this file we use the tags \verb|main|, \verb|bis|, \verb|a1|, \verb|b1|. With the \verb!\setindex! command we activate an index. Thus \verb!\setindex{main}! (no spaces!) tells \LaTeX\ that the active index is now the index identified by the tag \verb|main|, until the next \verb!\setindex! command. If a tag has not been encountered before, then a new index with that tag is created. The tag \verb|main| is always known and the index with tag \verb|main| becomes active at the \verb|\begin{document}|. The \verb!\index! command and the \verb|\printindex| commands write to/from the active index.\\ After running latex on {\it filename}.\verb!tex! one must run makeindex on {\it filename} to get the index entries in {\it filename}.\texttt{ind}. Before this there may be warnings about labels or names. Do not exclude any relevant files. For instance, do not use \verb|\includeonly|. (A tool like pdflatexmk in TeXShop on the MAC will call makeindex for you.)\\ If you wish you may use \verb!\sindex[bis]{!\emph{entry}\verb!}! as shorthand for\\ \hspace{5em} \verb!\setindex{bis}\index{!\emph{entry}\verb!}!\\ and \verb!\sindex{!\emph{entry}\verb!}! as shorthand for\\ \hspace{5em} \verb!\setindex{main}\index{!\emph{entry}\verb!}!.\\ One may give (at most) two optional arguments to \verb|\printindex|. \noindent While \verb|\printindex| \noindent prints the active index, \verb|\printindex[b1]| \noindent first makes \verb|b1| the active index. And \verb|\printindex[b1][Index with tag b1]| \noindent also first does a \verb|\renewcommand{\indexname}{Index with tag b1}|. To see how package \verb|manyind| may be used, you may also compare the file \verb|mindsample.tex| with the output. This preface has an \emph{indexed term}.\setindex{b1}\index{indexed term} (You see this in the source file only.) \chapter{Introduction}\sloppy \renewcommand\thepage{\arabic{page}} \addtocounter{page}{-6}% Just to get overlap in roman and arabic page numbers. This introduction has another indexed term \setindex{a1} \index{other term!cited twice on same page}% as well as the old indexed term.\setindex{b1}\index{indexed term}% will appear in an automatic page range The page number is \thepage, but now in arabic. If you index the same term twice on the same page, then it gets listed only once. We have hacked various mechanisms of makeindex. Subentries are still supported. We illustrate this in \verb|mindsample.tex| and appendix \ref{appendix} with alpha, beta and gamma (output on page \pageref{range}). This also illustrates the use of \verb|\gobblepageref|, a variant of \verb!\see!. The package \verb|manyind| is similar to option \verb!multind! of package \verb|robustindex|, but it does not put any \verb|\pageref| in an index. Therefore it does not have to disable the automatic page range mechanism of makeindex. The index file {\it filename}.\texttt{ind} has become quite unreadable. Do not edit it. Use the package \verb!manyind! only if you are willing to keep the indexes standard. If one puts \verb|\altsort| in the preamble, then entries are sorted differently. For instance, \verb|\index{\"U}| will put \"U after the alphabet, not before. \setindex{a1}\index{alpha!see beta} \index{alpha!see also gamma\gobblepageref} \newpage \setindex{b1}\index{indexed term}% will appear in an automatic page range \setindex{b1}\index{page range!risky@this $\vert$is$\vert$ complicated|(textbf}% \index{page range|(textit}% \index{page range!risky@this $\vert$is$\vert$ complicated|textbf}% \index{page range!risky@this $\vert$is$\vert$ complicated|textbf}% \index{page range!risky@this $\vert$is$\vert$ complicated|textbf}% % \index{simpler!page range|(}% \index{simplest page range|(}% \setindex{b1}\index{indexed term}% will appear in an automatic page range \appendix \setindex{b1}\index{indexed term}% will appear in an automatic page range \chapter{Structure of the \LaTeX\ file}\label{appendix} \setindex{b1}\index{indexed term}% will appear in an automatic page range \begin{verbatim} \documentclass{book} \usepackage{manyind} \usepackage[plainpages=false,colorlinks=true]{hyperref} ... ...\author{Wilberd van der Kallen\index{Wilberd}} ... \makeindex % obligatory with manyind \begin{document} ... \tableofcontents ...\index{indexed term} % on page vi ... ...\index{other term!cited twice on same page} % on page 1 ...\index{indexed term} % on page 1 ...\index{other term!cited twice on same page} % on page 1 ... \setindex{a1}\index{alpha!see beta} % on page 1 \index{alpha!see also gamma\gobblepageref} % on page 1 ... \indexincontents % before the indexes. \setindex{main} \printindex ... \renewcommand{\indexcapstyle}[1]{\indexspace\textsc{#1}\par} \printindex[main][Index with headings] \end{document} \end{verbatim} \setindex{b1}\index{indexed term}% will appear in an automatic page range \sindex{as! t@is} \index{tris} \setindex{main}\index{alpha} \setindex{a1}\index{gamma} \setindex{bis}\index{bis} \setindex{main}\index{delta!vardelta} \setindex{main}\index{animal!than@fish} \setindex{main}\index{time!here@now} % When you are sure there is an entry \index{\"U...}. \index{\"U@\indexcapstyle{\"U}\gobblepageref}% \index{\"Uber}% \index{\"Uberhaupt}% % There is a nerdy way: \index{\"N@\protect\nxtletre \protect\def \nwletre {\"O}\gobblepageref} \index{\"P@\relax\gobblepageref} % Now look what happens if you leave out the next line \index{\"Osterreich} % Similarly \index{\A>@\protect\nxtletre \protect\def \nwletre {\AA}\gobblepageref} \index{\AB@\relax\gobblepageref} \index{\AA ngstrom} \setindex{b1}\index{page range!risky@this $\vert$is$\vert$ complicated|)textbf} \index{page range|)textit}% %\sindex[b1]{page range!risky@this $\vert$is$\vert$ complicated|textbf} % \index{page range!with risky label\label{range}} % This label actually works and was used above in a \pageref{range} command. % \sindex[b1]{simpler!page range|)}% \index{simplest page range|)}% % If you want the index in the table of contents, you may do % % \clearpage % \phantomsection % \addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{\indexname} % % We have a command for this: \indexincontents % before \printindex \renewcommand{\indexname}{Index} \setindex{main} \printindex \sindex[b1]{page range!risky@this $\vert$is$\vert$ complicated|textbf} \renewcommand{\indexname}{Index bis} \setindex{bis} \printindex \renewcommand{\indexname}{Index with tag a1} \setindex{a1} \printindex \renewcommand{\indexname}{Index with tag b1} \setindex{b1} \printindex \subsection*{Embellishment} The command \verb!\indexcapstyle! takes one argument.
