NOTE:THIS DIRECTORY (INDEX-SOURCES) IS NOT TO BE RELEASED.


These are the source files that were used to create the
printed (stand-alone) Chineual Index, and the on-line
ODM index that was produced from it. I am putting them
in the Gateway directory to be sure they cannot get
lost, since future implementors of the Chineual and ODM
Indexes will not want to start over. 

The files in this directory are:

      SOURCE-FOR-CHINEUAL-INDEX.TEXT
      SOURCE-FOR-ODM-INDEX.TEXT

These are the basic sources. The Chineual Index source
has many mechanically-produced permutations of entries.
These do not appear in the ODM Index source. They were
supposed to be put in after the human-intervention
phase of conversion from page numbers to nodenames was
done, but they never were.  

      CHINEUAL-INDEX-FOR-PRINTER.TEXT

The final, formatted, hand-tweaked file that was printed
as the Chineual Index.  
    
      PAGE-NODENAME-TRANSLATION-TABLE.TEXT

A mapping of page numbers to nodenames. Has an entry for
each Chineual node (corresponding to a decimalized section)
that has one or more lines on each Chineual page.

      ODM-INDEX-MAKER.LISP
      ODM-INDEX-MAKER.QFASL

A program that reads SOURCE-FOR-ODM-INDEX.TEXT and 
PAGE-NODENAME-TRANSLATION-TABLE.TEXT, and replaces page
numbers with nodenames, thereby mostly accomplishing the
creation of the ODM Index from the Chineual Index. Where
a page contains text from only one node, the transform is 
done automatically for all index entries for that page. 
Where a page contains more than one node, the program pops 
up a choice box for each index entry for that page, so the
user can tell the program which node the entry refers to 
(a natural intelligence application). The program lets you 
quit or restart at the beginning of any page. It has no 
protection against bogus data.

      ODM-INDEX-PART-1.TEXT
      ODM-INDEX-PART-2.TEXT

The output of the ODM-INDEX-MAKER program, divided into two
files for convenience. Dividing these files into nodes of
reasonable size creates the ODM index.
