<longdescription lang="en">
xindy is an index processor that can be used to generate book-like indexes
for arbitrary document-preparation systems. This includes systems such as
TeX and LaTeX, the roff-family, SGML/XML-based systems (e.g., HTML) that
process some kind of text and generate indexing information. The kernel
system is not fixed to any specific system, but can be configured to work
together with such systems.
In comparison to other index processors xindy has several powerful features
that make it an ideal framework for describing and generating complex
indices, addressing especially international indexing. Have a look at
xindy's Overview that describes its most important features!
