Mar 23, 2014 at 2:16 comment added Daniel Harbour Thanks for this. I'm still trying to come up with something myself. I've upvoted in the meantime.
Mar 18, 2014 at 9:07 comment added Nicola Talbot I haven't used Windows in years, so someone may be able to correct me if I'm wrong, but I think if you specify a file name within double quotes in a 'Save As' dialog box, it will honour the extension you've used and not try adding the default extension to it.

Mar 17, 2014 at 20:46 comment added John Kormylo Never mind, I found one in MikTeX
Mar 17, 2014 at 20:34 comment added John Kormylo @Nicola Talbot - One thing windows will NOT let you do is create a file with a specific extension. Instead I wind up creating mystyle.ist.tex. If I have an .ist file, I can copy and edit it, so do you know where I can download one or could you email me one?
Mar 17, 2014 at 17:38 comment added Nicola Talbot The delimiter can be changed to a full stop by creating a .ist file (for example mystyle.ist) and adding the line page_compositor "." (and you need to specify the style using the -s switch when you run makeindex)

Mar 16, 2014 at 21:23 comment added John Kormylo I guess it must wait until the end of the page. So one would have to have \thepage give a different answer each time it is called (in sequence). Ugh!
Mar 16, 2014 at 18:10 comment added Nicola Talbot The write to the external file is deferred, so by the time the line is written, \thepage has switched back to \arabic{page}, which is why it doesn't work.
