| index -- create, add to, and view sections of indexed files
 | |
|          [EXTERNAL] (v1.0)
 | |
| 
 | |
| syntax:  index <pathname> [-s <index-size>] [-a <filename>]
 | |
|                           [-e <string>] [-v <string>]
 | |
| 
 | |
| ex:      index %help/indexed.help -s1200
 | |
|          index %help/indexed.help -aprefix -ecd
 | |
|          index %help/indexed.help -vprefix
 | |
| 
 | |
| 'index' is used to build the %indexed.help file containing most of the
 | |
| help files for Davex.  Use the -s (size) option to create a new file,
 | |
| reserving the specified number of bytes for the index.  Use the -a option
 | |
| with a filename to append the contents of a file to an existing indexed
 | |
| file.  The -e option is used if you want to add an alternative key to
 | |
| the index for a file--the second example above adds the contents of a
 | |
| file called "prefix" to an index file, and the text can later be accessed
 | |
| with a key of either "prefix" or "cd", since "cd" appears after the -e
 | |
| (extra key) option.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The -v option lets you look up things in an indexed file; it's equivalent
 | |
| to what the 'help' command does with %help/indexed.help if it doesn't
 | |
| find a particular file first.
