I am using \index{} to populate \placeindex (an index) with items.
I am wondering if there is any syntax that allows one \index{} command
to define more than one entry, for example, something like this:
\index{presidents+Lincoln, Abraham; Lincoln, Abraham}
The result is two appearances in the index:
L
Lincoln, Abraham
P
presidents
Lincoln, Abraham
Is there some syntax for making this possible, without calling \index{}
multiple times?
splitting on + is already tricky (i just send Alan a patch that deals
with a mix of text and math that has + in it)
it is no big deal top write this but just using a ; would for sure
issues with existing indices
anyway, apart from maybe some typing it is not more efficient to combine
