Yes, it is not uncommon to write application-specific index classes. For example, if you look into the sources of the picolisp.com Wiki at http://software-lab.de/wiki.tgz, you find that it builds a '+MupIdx' ("Markup index") in "wiki/er.l" ♪♫ Alex -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:picolisp@software-lab.de?subject=Unsubscribe
