Recently I learned about the existence of xindy (I found its homepage). For years I have been using my own index processor for processing my LaTeX indexes. It is certainly not very advanced or flexible, but it has one great advantage: it knows the Danish sorting rules. But now it seems that I should switch to xindy! But as were are using DOS computers here at my department, the crucial question is: is someone porting xindy to DOS ? (or, since the homepage text hints that the answer is no, maybe I should ask: how difficult is it to make a DOS version?)
