Thanks for the hints. I was able to adapt compiler.vim and texrc. I'm sending the diff, in case anyone else might need it.

cheers.
Felipe.

A few things...

*) As with makeindex, bibtex, etc., you'll often have to run latex twice
after the makeindex call:

latex
makeindex
latex
latex

In fact, there are some (ALMOST pathological) times when latex will need
to be run yet again (and possibly makeindex again). Writing a Makefile
to do all of this isn't trivial (though it's been done -- it's easy to
find lots of very complete latex Makefile solutions on-line).


*) If you build all of this logic into your Makefile, you should
probably turn it off within Vim-LaTeX, or it may try to run LaTeX more
than it needs to.


*) I've actually modified my ~/.vim/ftplugin/latex-suite/compiler.vim
file so that it runs makeindex not only if it sees idx files, but also
if it sees other files for makeindex (like glo for glossaries or acr for
acronyms). I'm not comfortable with distributing my own compiler.vim
(for fear that I'll forget to tell you to also change something in
texrc), but it may be a good idea to try hacking your own compiler.vim
so that it responds to new .nlo files. Open up compiler.vim and search
for "makeindex". You'll find the section. The flow isn't hard to follow.
