33.4.2 The INDEX file
The optional INDEX
file provides a categorical view of the
functions in the package. This file has a very simple format
- Lines beginning with
#
are comments. - The first non-comment line should look like this
toolbox >> Toolbox name
- Lines beginning with an alphabetical character indicates a new category of functions.
- Lines starting with a white space character indicate that the function names on the line belong to the last mentioned category.
The format can be summarized with the following example
# A comment toolbox >> Toolbox name Category Name 1 function1 function2 function3 function4 Category Name 2 function2 function5
