Does anybody know where I can get back issues of TUGboat, particularly the article ``An Indexing facility for TeX'' by Terry Winograd and Bill Paxton, TUGboat 1 (1980)? Thanks in advance.

You probably don't really want this though. There have been numerous other indexing utilities written in the intervening decade and since TeX has been dramatically reincarnated in that time, the program probably isn't much use anyway. I would recommend Pehong Chen's makeindex program as your indexing program (it's an official part of LaTeX and also the most widely used indexing utility). -dh --- Don Hosek "Other people get into occupations by dhosek@ymir.claremont.edu accident or design; but writers are born. dhosek@ymir.bitnet We have to write.
