Subject: Sort register (index) by Bible book
Date: Tue, 17 Nov 2009 07:50:03 +1300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <877htqz4mc.wl%berend@pobox.com> (raw)

Hi All,

I'm typesetting a book that has a register of Bible verses. I like to
order them by Bible book as per the order the books are customarily
listed.

The index is created like \index{1 Samuel 1:1} and retrieved with
\placeindex, so that's all standard.

Are there any tools to sort this index? How can I make this part of
the regular "build"? Or is this something you do once, at the end, by
hand?

Thanks for any pointers,

Berend de Boer
