 Indices
 *******
 
   Using Texinfo, you can generate indices without having to sort and
 collate entries manually.  In an index, the entries are listed in
 alphabetical order, together with information on how to find the
 discussion of each entry.  In a printed manual, this information
 consists of page numbers.  In an Info file, this information is a menu
 entry leading to the first node referenced.
 
   Texinfo provides several predefined kinds of index: an index for
 functions, an index for variables, an index for concepts, and so on.
 You can combine indices or use them for other than their canonical
 purpose.  If you wish, you can define your own indices.
