index with chapter and section numbers

index with chapter and section numbers

[Otared Kavian]

Hi,

In a math text book, I would like to create an index of some material where chapter and section numbers are given instead of a page number.

For instance if the result « 3.2.5 Banach Fixed Point Theorem » is stated in section 2 of chapter 3, and is the fifth numbered statement in that section, I would like to create a \myindex command so that adding the command
\myindex{Banach Fixed Point Theorem}
at that location, I get in the index created by \myindex a line such as

Banach Fixed Point Theorem 		3.2.5

Is this possible?

Best regards and many thanks for any hint: OK

well, the info is actually there already so i added a new option (that 
you then wikify) ...

\setupregister
   [index]
   [pagesegments=1:4,
    pagemethod=section]

\starttext

     \chapter {one} \section {alpha}

     x\index {whatever 1}x\index {whatever 2}x\index {whatever 2}x \page
     x\index {whatever 1}x\index {whatever 2}x\index {whatever 2}x \page

     \chapter {one} \section {alpha}

     x\index {whatever 1}x\index {whatever 2}x\index {whatever 2}x \page
     x\index {whatever 1}x\index {whatever 2}x\index {whatever 2}x \page

     \placeindex[n=1]

\stoptext

which then renders:

w
whatever 1 1.1, 2.1
whatever 2 1.1, 2.1

in next beta
