This has worked well for us:

1. Use the macros in Narain Gehani's "Document Formatting and Typesetting
   on the Unix System", Silicon Press, ISBN 0-9615336-2-5.

2. Massage this output with the programs in Section 5.3 (Making Indexes) of
   "The AWK Programming Language", by Aho, Kernighan, and Weinberger,
   Addison-Wesley, ISBN 0-201-07981-X.

Hope this helps,
Mark.
