index.???

index.name is the name of the index section. This string is used in \Wbegin to initialize the TeX macro \INDEX. The index section is recognized by matching, for a starred section, the actual section name against the contents of \INDEX. When they match, a new page and two-column mode are begun. These rules imply that the last section of one's source file can be titled \INDEX, as in

     @* \INDEX.
     

index.tex is the name of the file into which the Index is written. The character # is translated into the root name of the web file, as for example #.ndx.

index.preamble are TeX commands that begin the Index.

index.postamble are TeX commands that end the Index.

index.collate specifies the collating sequence for the Index.
