Making an Index
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
A good index is one of the hardest things to make in a lengthy document,
but LyX helps make things a bit simpler by interfacing to the
\family typewriter
makeindex
\family default
program which is found in most recent LaTeX distributions.

Inserting an index and marking words to include in it works much the same
way as preparing a bibliography as mentioned in the last section.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
First, go to the end of your file and select
\family sans
\bar under
I
\bar default
nsert\SpecialChar \menuseparator
List
\family default
\InsetSpace ~
/\InsetSpace ~
\family sans

\bar under
O
\bar default
C\SpecialChar \menuseparator
\bar under
I
\bar default
ndex
\family default
\InsetSpace ~
\family sans
List
\family default
.
Then, for each word you would like to include in the index, go to the end
of that word and click on
\family sans
\bar under
I
\bar default
nsert\SpecialChar \menuseparator
\bar under
I
\bar default
ndex
\family default
\InsetSpace ~
\family sans
Entry
\family default
.
This will insert a tag showing the word as it will appear in the index.
That's all there is to it; LyX will automatically call
\family typewriter
makeindex
\family default
for you and create the index itself.
The text in the dialog available from right-clicking on the index button
accepts LaTeX, so you'll need to be careful to avoid using any special
characters.
On the positive side, you can use the advanced options - have a look at
the documentation which comes with your LaTeX distribution to find out
how to do things like
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset
nested entries
\begin_inset Quotes erd
\end_inset
, etc.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
Be careful not to put spaces between the word in the text and the index
marker; apparently the wrong page number can be produced if this happens.
