I'm attaching some screenshots from the Kindle's free Japanese/Japanese dictionary. I did an index search for 頭 and it only shows one index entry for 頭【あたま】.

I can't figure out how they did it. I decompiled the dictionary and I can see that they use <idx:orth value=""> but I can't tell what the value is ... it looks like a pointer into the index file. I even opened up an index file in a hex editor, but it's unreadable.

Code:
 
<idx:entry>
  <idx:orth value="^C"A">
</idx:entry>
<b>あたま</b>【頭】<br/> <b>1</b> 動物の体の上 ...
Attached are screenshots of the index entry and the dictionary entry for 頭.
