in reply to Finding error in .ind file (OT)
Hi worstead!
This is perlmonks. We deal with the Perl programming language. TeX is pretty far off-topic, so you might not get much help here. You will find more help on a TeX or LaTeX forum. When you do find such a forum, I'd also suggest posting a more complete code snippet that demonstrates your problem. The always-helpful How do I post a question effectively?, while written for this site and with Perl examples, applies pretty well universally when asking for programming help.
