Hi, I'm sorry, this is the third time I'm asking this question, but I haven't been able to solve this, and the book is going to the publisher next month, so it's kind of urgent (I will sulk in Epen if this doesn't work :-) 1. I need to define a special type of register that will typeset page ranges in bold. I have a subindex that does that for single entries: \setupregister[index][imp][pagestyle=bold] which I invoke like \index[imp::]{modernity} and it works. How can I have the same thing for ranges? 2. Another index question: I have several seeindex entries. They work, but the publisher doesn't want a linebreak, and they want "see" in italics. SO instead of lisible see readerly they want lisible *see* readerly Can this be configured, or can I hack core-reg.tex (and how?). Best, and thanks Thomas
Hi Thomas, as Hans is probably too busy to write the perfect patch right now maybe meanwhile a hack will do ? On Thu, 26 Oct 2006 10:32:29 +0200, Hans Hagen wrote:
\placeregister[index][file=testtest]
so, you can copy test.tuo to testtest.tuo and then edit testtest.tuo to suit your needs

Thanks Steffen, I just tried it, and it works indeed! Not an elegant solution, for sure (my tuo file has ~3,600 lines, so editing it is a bit painful), but would do as a last ditch attempt. Thanks Thomas

OK, I tried a hack, and I just wanted to ask if there's anything wrong with it: as dirty workaround, I added a fourth key to dostartregister: \def\startregister {\doquadrupleempty\dostartregister} \def\dostartregister[#1][#2][#3][#4]#5% {\chardef\registerpagestatus\plustwo \def\currentregister{#1}% \setgvalue{\??id#1\??id#2}{\dodostopregister[#1][#3]{#5}}% \dodoregister[#3]{#4}{#5}} and after a quick test, this seems to do what I want. The endash between numbers is not bold, but I could live with that. Any comments from the developers?

Any chances to know more about this? Best Thomas

looks harmless to me so we can patch that can you also provide the appropriate cont-en.xml entry ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Hmm, I'm not quite sure I'm doing the right thing. I thought I could have 4 arguments in []: \startregister[name of register][key for range][type of register] [sort key]{register entry} but the [sort key] doesn't seem to work. The hack is OK for me now, but it may not be good for the distribution.
can you also provide the appropriate cont-en.xml entry
Would like to, but comparing "register" to "startregister," I don't
see anything that has to be changed?

Thanks so much, this seems to be doing exactly what I want! Now my index is almost perfect... Thanks Thomas
