Thanks Christian,

I am currently using index to create the closest thing I can to what I
want.  It looks like the below.  The big problem is that there are a max of
3 levels, the top level which is the first character of the second.

Could I do any better than this without writing something new?

Greg

C
    computing-methodologies
        adversarial plan recognition

D
    document-management-and-text-processing
         bibliographies using org-mode
