processes without a hitch but \seeindex is still not working as expected.
In
\starttext
\index{sample}
\index{fun+games}\index{fun+stuff}
%\index{fun}
\seeindex{fun}{sample}% now with heading (as it should be)
\seeindex{fun}{blah}% not shown
\seeindex{fun}{humbug}% not shown
\seeindex{fun}{bug}% not shown
\seeindex{fun+games}{entertainment}% not shown
\placeindex[n=1]
\stoptext
When I generate the indices for my book, \seeindex{A}{B} works only if it is a
unique x-ref and A is a heading. Multiple x-refs to the same heading fail as do
x-refs to subheadings.
sure,
\seeindex{fun}{blah} % not shown
\seeindex{fun}{humbug} % not shown
\seeindex{fun}{bug} % not shown
as there is no index entry blah, humbug or bug ... so you would be fooling your
reader
I understand the rationale, and it could be a nice feature, but we need to
refer to entries in a different register, e.g. from an index of topics to an
index of persons, e.g. \seeindex{Pragma}{Hagen, Hans} or to subentries like
\seeindex{fun+games}{bah+humbug}. Since the latter doesn’t work (or does it
now?), we use \seeindex{fun+games}{bah/humbug}.
hm, sounds like a crappy index to mee (i actually hate these indexes
that force you to 'see' somplace else .. extra lookup)
anyway, i'll add check=no to placeregister so that one can bypass the
check (but i cannot foresee side effects like missing references in
interactiev documents so these have to be taken for granted)
