I have some old versions of BWK awk that can be used for testing.
(I think as far back as ~ 1993; I'd have to check.)
I don't think it's important to go that far back.
My main concern would be working with some awk that standardly comes
with Solaris and BSD systems.
To that end, can I

As a hypothetical question, if I rewrote texindex in awk and it
functioned as a drop-in replacement, would you take it?
I don't see why not. It would surely be easier to maintain.
If you go that route, one thing I would really like to do is change the
.?? index files to use @ as the esca

Same is true for just @cindex @{, BTW.
The problem, I believe, is with texindex, which is not prepared to

Hi. Something like

"@node index" solve the problem?
Probably, but it shouldn't be necessary. I'll take a look when I can.
Meanwhile, please do feel free to work around the bug.

Get the current standards.texi, format it with version 1999-04-25.15 and
look at the index.
It seems that `@setchapternewpage off' is in effect. The index starts

Subsequent index pages only use 1/3 the page! See pages 59-64.
