INDEX shortcut

I am looking for an INDEX macro with which \index{name} can be generated.
Something that allows one to just klick on a word (e.g. the word "name") and then 
it appends \index{name} behind that word.
Thanks

Try inserting these lines in MainMenu.ini

     ITEM="Index"
       CAPTION="&Index"
       IMAGE="Thesaurus"
MACRO="IfSel(2,'>',!'SetSel(0);');InsLabel('\index','{','}');"
       REQ_DOCUMENT=1

for example after the following ones:

     ITEM="Label"
       CAPTION="&Label"
       IMAGE="Label"
MACRO="IfSel(2,'>',!'SetSel(0);');InsLabel('\label','{','}');"
       REQ_DOCUMENT=1

Remember to load the script after that (Shift+Ctrl+F9)

Re: INDEX shortcut

I now understand, how to use it (typing #i..). But this still means that one has to type the

argument name into { }. Browsing through a document with many pages and very many

index arguments ten is still very clumsy. I was looking for a script that inserts the

argument "name" by double clicking on the word "name".

Re: INDEX shortcut

I still have not succeeded with the INDEX macro and would need some more help/instructions.

I was looking for an INDEX macro with which \index{name} can be generated, that allows one to just klick on a word (e.g. the word "name") and then

it appends \index{name} behind that word

I did insert

ITEM="Index"
     CAPTION="&Index"
     IMAGE="Thesaurus"
MACRO="IfSel(2,'>',!'SetSel(0);');InsLabel('\index','{','}');"
     REQ_DOCUMENT=1

into MainMenu.ini.

I failed so far to work with it. Is it supposed to do exactly what I was looking for?

Thanks
