11.8 Indexing

(indexed-scheme datum ...)

A combination of scheme and as-index, with the following special cases when a single datum is provided:

• If datum is a quote form, then the quote is removed from the key (so that it’s sorted using its unquoted form).

• If datum is a string, then quotes are removed from the key (so that it’s sorted using the string content).

(idefterm pre-content ...) → element?

pre-content : any/c

Combines as-index and defterm. The content normally should be plural, rather than singular. Consider using deftech, instead, which always indexes.

(pidefterm pre-content ...) → element?

pre-content : any/c

Like idefterm, but plural: adds an “s” on the end of the content for the index entry. Consider using deftech, instead.

(indexed-file pre-content ...) → element?

pre-content : any/c

A combination of file and as-index, but where the sort key for the index iterm does not include quotes.

(indexed-envvar pre-content ...) → element?

pre-content : any/c

A combination of envvar and as-index.
