Among other things, I would like these little subheads to be uppercase. 2) Sometimes a topic is referenced at two nearby places in the text. If these places fall on separate pages, I would like the index to mention both of them. If they fall on the same page, however, the index entry is duplicated. I expected texutil to remove duplicate index entries when sorting. Is it supposed to? (This is not a major problem; I can work around it.) 3) Likewise (this is a suggestion rather than a question) it would be nice if ConTeXt automatically transformed a sequence of 3 or more consecutive index entries (such as 10, 11, 12) into a page range (10-12). I realize there is a facility (\startindex...\stopindex) to get these page ranges manually, so again this is not a major issue. 4) If I have the command \seeindex{foo}{bar} and also \index{foo} on page 17, it would be nice if the index could say foo 17 see also bar rather than just "see bar". Is there a way to get this behavior? -- Miller Maley
