Multiple indexes - is it possible?
Hi folks,
I've rummaged around on the net and poked about in Sigil and cannot find a solution to this issue, so I thought I'd ask here... I'm currently 'involved' (read providing Tech Support) for an e-pub collaboration using Sigil. The book is a refresh of a Natural History (flora and fauna) based epub2 (created with Sigil a couple of years ago) and has a large number of Latin names (over 1000) which made fo interesting spell checking, until I twigged that I could manually create/edit/check a "Latin" user dictionary. However, for this new revised edition we're trying to provide an "Index of Latin Names" separate from the normal English "Index". Anyone managed / hacked their way through doing this or something similar? Any help/advice gratefully received... Cheers! Andy B. |

If the Latin is marked up with language tag 'la' you could use the calibre epub editor to get a list of the Latin words via Tools->Report->Words. It can save to a csv file which you can sort in a csv file handler.
And if you installed a scientific Latin hunspell dictionary into the calibre editor you should be able to spell check the Latin and as well as the main language. BR |

I can generate my "Index of Latin Names" quite happily, it's generating a new standard index afterwards I'm having a problem with. I've even gone to the extreme of renaming index.xhtml to latin.xhtml and replacing the existing index tags with something different ie: id="sigil_index_id_3" becomes id="LATIN_3" in both the content and the index. This works to a point but when I create a new index file latin.xhtml gets trashed. Andy B. Last edited by andyb; 05-02-2017 at 04:57 AM. Reason: Missing [/QUOTE] |

It would have helped if you had mentioned this...
