I'm having a problem with makeindex -g, quoting, and using Y':

I create two index entries like this:

index{Y'@$Y'$|see{Luma}}

index{Farbmodell!Y'CBCR@$Y'C_BC_R'$|main}

(with newcommand{main}[1]{textbf{#1}})

This generates these .idx entries:

indexentry{Y'@$Y'$|see{Luma}}{43}

indexentry{Farbmodell!$'CBCR@$Y'C_BC_R'$|main}{43}

To use -g (I also use -r), I've set up an index style using quote ''' (and some more formatting). This seems to mess with having ' in the index entries, while makeindex (version 2.15 [TeX Live 2017] (kpathsea + Thai support)) does not print an error related to it.

The output in .ind is:

  item Farbmodell

    subitem $YC_BC_R$hspace{1em}dotfillhspace{1em}main{43}

  item Y@$Y$hspace{1em}dotfillhspace{1em}see{Luma}{43}

So the ' got lost in the first output, and Y@ is being displayed for the second. Unfortunately I have no idea how to fix it (the set of usable quote characters seems quite limited).

I case this matters, here's my document preamble:

documentclass[a4paper,twoside]{report}

usepackage{german}

usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}

usepackage{a4}

usepackage{makeidx}

usepackage{showidx}

usepackage{amsmath}

usepackage{url}

usepackage{graphicx}

usepackage{ifthen}

input{styledefs}

makeindex

begin{document}

If you set the quote character to ', then you have to quote it when using it in an index entry.

Here's a schematic solution. The filecontents* environment is just to make the example self-contained. If the current directory contains a file with the same name as the main TeX file and extension .mst, this one will be automatically used by MakeIndex.

File main.tex

begin{filecontents*}{jobname.mst}

quote '''

end{filecontents*}



documentclass{article}



usepackage{makeidx}

makeindex



providecommand{main}[1]{#1} % I don't know what main should do



begin{document}



Some text



index{Y''@$Y''$|see{Luma}}

index{Farbmodell!Y''CBCR@$Y''C_BC_R''$|main}



printindex



end{document}

File main.idx

indexentry{Y''@$Y''$|see{Luma}}{1}

indexentry{Farbmodell!Y''CBCR@$Y''C_BC_R''$|main}{1}

File main.ind (after running MakeIndex)

begin{theindex}



  item Farbmodell

    subitem $Y'C_BC_R'$, main{1}



  indexspace



  item $Y'$, see{Luma}{1}



end{theindex}
