Name of contribution: SplitIndex Suggested location on CTAN: tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/supported/splitindex Summary description: Using a unlimited number of indices with almost every LaTeX-class License type: Free
Announcement text:
SplitIndex consists of a LaTeX package, splitidx, and a small program, splitindex. The package may be used to produce one index or several indices. Without using the program the number of indices is limited by the number of TeXs output streams. But using the program you may use even more than 16 indices. At this case, splitidx outputs only a single file jobname.idx and the program splits that file into several raw index files and calls your favorite index processor for each of it.
The splitindex program is available as perl-program (splitindex.pl), java-program (splitindex.java/class), Windows-CYGWIN binary (splitindex.exe), Linux-i386-ELF binary (splitindex-Linux-i386), OpenBSD-3.0-i386 binary (splitindex-OpenBSD-i386) and even as TeX program (splitindex.tex with some limitations). The source splitindex.c is also part of the distribution.
There's an installation documentation (install.txt) and an installation script (install.sh) at the package.
The package was testet with the standard LaTeX classes and the KOMA-Script classes.
This release is a bugfix of the Nov '02 release and intended to be stable though the version number is less than 1.
Fixes:
- no more segmentation fault, if a unknown long option
name is used
- some spellings at documentation
Thanks for the update, I installed it as requested, in
macros/latex/contrib/supported/splitindex
