NAME

upmendex – Multilingual index processor

SYNOPSIS

upmendex [-ilqrcgf] [-s sty] [-d dic] [-o ind] [-t log] [-p no] [—] [ idx0 idx1 idx2 …]
upmendex –help

DESCRIPTION

The program upmendex is a general purpose multilingual hierarchical index generator working with upLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX; it accepts one or more input files (.idx; often produced by a text formatter such as LaTeX families), sorts the entries, and produces an output file which can be formatted. It supports Latin (including non-English), Greek, Cyrillic, Korean Hangul and Han (Hanzi ideographs) scripts, as well as Japanese Kana. It is almost compatible with makeindex and mendex, and additional feature for handling readings of kanji words is also available. The formats of the input and output files are specified in a style file. The readings of kanji words can be specified in a dictionary file. The index can have up to three levels (0, 1, and 2) of subitem nesting.

OPTIONS

-i: Take input from stdin, even when index files are specified.
-l: Set ‘sort by character order’. By default, ‘sort by word order’ is used. Details are described below.
-q: Quiet mode; send no message to stderr, except error messages and warnings.
-r: Disable implicit page range formation. By default, three or more successive pages are automatically abbreviated as a range (e.g. 1-5).
-c: Compress sequence of intermediate blanks (space(s) and/or tab(s)) into a space and ignore leading and trailing blank(s). By default, blanks in the index key are retained.
-g: Make Japanese index head A-line (A, Ka, Sa, …; 10 characters) of the gojuon table (Japanese syllabary). By default, all 48 characters in the gojuon table are used.
-f: Force to output characters even if the scripts are not supported by upmendex.
-s sty: Employ sty as the style file.
-d dic: Employ dic as the dictionary file. The dictionary file is composed of lists of <index_word reading>.
-o ind: Employ ind as the output index file. By default, the file name is created by appending the extension ind to the base name of the first input file.
-t log: Employ log as the transcript file. By default, the file name is created by appending the extension ilg to the base name of the first input file.
-p no: Set the starting page number of the output index list to be no. The argument no may be numerical or one of the following: any (the next page to the end of contents), odd (the next odd page to the end of contents), even (the next even page to the end of contents).
–help: Show summary of options.
—: Arguments after — are not taken as options. This is useful when the input file name starts with ‘-‘.

STYLE FILE

The style file informs upmendex about the format of the idx input files and the intended format of the final output file. The format is upper compatible with the one for makeindex and mendex. The style file contains a list of <specifier attribute> pairs. There are two types of specifiers: input and output. Pairs do not have to appear in any particular order. A line begun by ‘%’ is a comment.
