Hello Dust and all - I don't have any way to do builds here now, so I really don't know how it is supposed to be built. But as far as building the files that go on the gimp.org website is concerned, those are built by Roman and put up there "nightly" (which really means when he feels like it, I think :-) ). As nearly as I can tell, Makefile.am creates Makefile.in. The makefile has a target for MAKEINDEX, which uses stylesheets/makeindex.xsl to create the index. It looks like Roman worked on makeindex.xsl most recently, so he is probably the one who can tell us about how the index is created. (At least, that's what it looks like to me!) As for Marco's earlier question about the items at the top of the Italian index, you probably also noticed that English has a lot of those, too, including most or all of the ones that the Italian one does. I looked very hard at the Italian "eraser" item and I didn't see anything wrong with the .xml file. The exact wording (La gomma) occurs in that file only once -- inside the <title> tags and not in index entries. That indicates to me that it is possible that those things are the result of a bug in the makeindex procedure. But since I don't understand it, I can only hope that someone who does understand it will be able to fix it. Julien's comment that the index creation doesn't handle letters with diacritical marks correctly, along with the missing Chinese, Korean and Russian indices, might tell us something, too. I haven't worried too much about the English index yet, but one of these days, I'll have to do something about it -- if the next version of GIMP doesn't come out before that. :-) Sally _______________________________________________ Gimp-docs mailing list Gimp-docs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-docs
