Index: separate each page of multipage entry with a comma

Post by simojoki »

I have created a song book with XeLaTeX. At the end, I have several indices of songs, authors, composers, etc., created with makeindex and the multind package.

When the same author/composer/etc. has several concurrent entries, the index prints the entry thus: "Bloggs, Joe .... 22-24". I would like it to print "Bloggs, Joe .... 22, 23, 24".

How might I configure makeindex, or an .ist file, to produce this behaviour?

Many thanks.

Hi simojoki,

run makeindex with the -r option, that is,

makeindex -r filename
