In my Linux box (Mandrake 7.1beta) /usr/bin/makeindex is the
executable file. But I wrote the script on my ~/bin directory
and it works ok.
Also, I downloaded your Letter.ist and I tried it successfully.
I noted that headings_flag, heading_prefix and heading_suffix
are the "commands" that I need. So, I commented the others.
In the makeindex documentation appears lethead_prefix, but
it's the same, I guess.
My new question. How can I center the heading_prefix?
I tried:
heading_prefix "\\texbf{\t " "\t\\texbf{ ", etc... But
it doesn't work :-(
With:
heading_prefix "\\begin{center}\\textbf{ "
heading_suffix " }\n\\end{center}"
It doesn't work either.
Ohh... \\hspace works. But, how can I center it?
