Question concerning sorting of an index

Question concerning sorting of an index

[Egger]

Hallo all,

I made an index. However I realized that Context is doeing a strange sorting
on the pagenumbers. How can I force Context to sort  the index ascending?
Here an excerpt of my index:

snijmachine 149, 18
spiegel 90, 97
stroken 126, 130, 21, 52
stijfselen 58, 73
t
touwen
fixeren buitenkant 106, 81
uitdraaien 103, 147

Thanks for hints.

Greetings Willi

Never seen the problem. Do you use texexec to compile your document?

What version of context do you use? What version of texexec and texutil?

Groetjes,

What version of texutil are you running (current version is 7.3)? There had
been a bug (around the moment that page ranges were added) but I thought I
repaired it.

Ahaa, you are probably using an older version of TeXutil. I had the same
problems some time ago
