Dear all,
I do some software documentation using Sphinx (https://www.sphinx-doc.org/).
When compiling pdfs Sphinx + LaTeX generates a huge index using a semi
automatic mechanism.
You can eg. do this:
-----
This is my normal text. Now comes the description of a Python module.
.. py:module:: foo
Description of module foo
This is normal text.
In the next sentence I want to reference the foo description.
Learn more about :py:mod:`foo`.
------
It is quite simple.
You mark something as a specific object and can reference it elsewhere.
Additionally Sphinx builds an index with links to all modules.
And the syntax is extensible, and you could define something like
.. mode:: org-mode
Description of org-mode.
Late I can reference the description with :mode:`org-mode`.
And it will show up in my index.
I wonder how I could achieve this in org-mode.
The foo description in Sphinx is not a headline but an anchor-reference
thing.
How could I achieve this in org-mode in a way that it gets exported
correctly to be of use in Latex or HTML?
Can I make "foo" a subtree with a special tag that triggers the
anchorization, referencing and indexing?
I know that there are tags and an index mechanism, but I miss the way
how to chain it all together.
TIA
juh
