I am trying to obtain a hardcopy of several .texinfo files, and am
currently using texi2dvi to accomplish it.  The problem is that texi2dvi
expects a program named "texindex" to generate the index after the
first run through LaTeX, but I've been unable to locate a version
which seems applicable.  I found a VAX Pascal version on several of
the archive sites, but p2c (which I installed just for this purpose)
has quite a few problems with its I/O statements.  Is there a C
version of texindex out there, or does one just have to manually
translate the offending code?  Thanks in advance for any pointers!
