  • Yes, this worked fine but somehow I screwed up the prologue of the document I wanted to use it in. Any thoughts of adding it to memoir or as a stand-alone package? Commented Jul 18, 2021 at 17:38
  • @PeterWilson, not really. If there had been a need for it, people would have asked for it. I don't think I've ever seen a document with a three col index, you'll run out of space too fast Commented Jul 18, 2021 at 17:45

    In my particular document the index entries are very short, one or two words and a page number. If I use a one-column document the regular index takes 49 pages. Using a two-column index it takes 25 pages but a three column index only takes 17 pages --- a significant reduction on the other formats. I certainly need a three-column index, perhaps others as well but they haven't realised it or haven't asked. Anyway, it is obviously up to you. Commented Jul 19, 2021 at 17:28
