Have you looked at the ptx command? Might be called "gptx" on a system with the

Thanks, Cameron. I was unaware of it. Will check it out.

BTW, it well predates the GNU coreutils; I used it on V7 UNIX. Nicely, it includes the surrounding words in the index output for context, makes for a far more usable index listing. You may need to postprocess the output to fit your needs.
