But the index includes the function names. Example:

* LFN environment variable <1>:          glob.
* LFN environment variable <2>:          _crt0_startup_flags.
* LFN environment variable <3>:          _preserve_fncase.
* LFN environment variable <4>:          _rename.
* LFN environment variable:              _use_lfn.

Is there some format where this doesn't happen (DVI, HTML, PostScript)?

Bye, Rich =]
