It *used to* work but that was a very long time ago. You 'll just have to try and see. I used to have a small set of indexing macros for plain, these probably would also work. Most plain macro packages work out of the box, or with only trivial changes. The thing is: I like the ConTeXt registers a lot. I don't want to go back to makeindex anymore (even though getting the sort order right in texutil can be a pain). -- groeten, Taco
