I would want to be able to change them if there are errors, or if some publisher has different views about the presentation of titles of items that are in the index (titles of songs, for instance). And also when (parts of) the text has (have) to be reused for other purposes. Change them in one operation, that is, not by digging up all occurrences in the book of the item that has to be changed. >> >> In answer to Alan’s question: names, theoretical treatises and manuscripts, musical works, musical terms. Nearly all examples in the book have several features that have to be indexed: composer’s name, title of the published work (an opera for instance), title of the particular aria of which the example shows a fragment, and the special features that are shown in the example, parallel 7ths, for example. >> The not-so-minimal example below (best processed iwth mkiv) gives an impression, also of the optical clumsiness that makes the unprocessed text practically unreadable.

Great improvement, also for the readability of the text. Thank you very much, Hans.

This code works beautifully in this way, with only a few index entries at the top of the file, before \starttext. But how can I deal with the thousand or more index items in my project, which I have collected in four separate dedicated files with indexentries, like the three shown in the example-code. I have really no idea what else should be in these files, what sort of name they should have, in particular extension, and how and where I can input them. I use TeXShop as my texteditor but that is probably not relevant here. Can you give me some guidance, please? Thanks in advance.

It took me a while to make your code operational in the way I need it. For the new example you gave is still an "integral file". My project, like most book-projects, I guess, is modular with a master file Project.tex, into which everything else, setups, .bbl's, front- and backmatter, the various chapters are input. Though strictly speaking it would not be impossible to add some 1000 lines of index entries before \startproject, it would not be especially handy, and I cannot believe that it would be the proper ConTeXt-way to do it. I found that when I split your code, transferred the top part to a new file, which I named "IndexItems", and input that into the other half, the text proper, it works. But when I add another file with indexentries, for instance "indexitemsnames", then only one of them, the one at the top is used. So it seems that the whole collection of index items must be in one file. Is that the only possibility or are there ways to enable the use of several collections of index items?
