Hello all, this is my first time in this very useful forum! As a historian (of opera) I use the analytical index to refer to people's name and sometimes to their works. But I find really annoying to write every single time in the index line "Verdi, Giuseppe") in Lyx (or a LaTeX editor). Additionally, when I'm talking about - say - Verdi's opera "Aida" for a nested index (very nice and useful) I have to write in the index line "Verdi, [EMAIL PROTECTED]" to have it correctly nested and emphasized. That's crazy (and I'm still lucky it's a short reference and not Amilcare Ponchielli's "Il Figliuol Prodigo"!!!). There should be a way to write only a sort of conventional "label" (as for bibliography) for example "VerdiAida" or simply "Aida" which refer to a correctly formatted index reference somewhere else (the preamble?) and only ONCE for all!!! I'm not refering to the aliases in the index (I already use): i don't want my index to refer "VerdiAida, see Verdi, Giuseppe / Aida", of course!!! Please help me, sure there's an answer! Another - silly - question: how can I BY KEYBOARD open (and close) an index box or a TeX box in Lyx? Thanks!
