Sorted.
The new system won't really work because it uses \n[%] which is not what I
want to get as a page number. I want \nP because I reset it to zero after
the abstract.
I looked at the ultimate documentation (the macros themselves).
I can see my old friend .IX which sends its argument and page number to
standard error. I can define my own and uses that to output a list of
key words/phrases and their page numbers which I can capture.
I will sort and massage that list into a file and do much of what .INDP
does and then pull that file into my document with a .so.
All good.
Thanks - Damian
