Hi,
possibly a trivial question, but can't find it anywhere:
How do I get the term C++ into an index? Unfortunately ConTeXT
interprets the + as a separator for indexed terms and I did not find a
way to escape it
that did not confuse the index mechanism./
\index[Cplusplus]{C++}
\index[Cplusplus]{Cpp}
So, the as started signals texutil that that is the separator
instead of
+ while the plusplus makes sure that the sorting is ok

The second part of this advice I assume is now just out of date, since
it will simply produce a second index entry called Cpp. However, the
first part *almost* works - it outputs an entry C with a subentry +
(without the you can't get a + out at all).
What is the up-to-date workaround for this issue to let me get a single
entry in the index that just says C++?
Minimal test file is as follows:
\starttext
We are talking about \index[Cplusplus]{C++}C++, the programming language.
\placeindex
\stoptext
Thanks!
Duncan
