Glossary Indexer (索引生成技能)

Usage

/glossary-indexer <subject-initial.typ>

Workflow

Given a Typst file path (e.g. 1.Analyse/Analyse Réelle/chapters/LebesgueIntegration.typ), perform the following steps:

Step 1: Scan for Labels

Search the file for all labels matching the pattern:

<[a-z]+:[a-z][a-z0-9-]*>

Examples: <def:continuation>, <def:limit-of-sequence-of-sets>, <thm:open-set-construction>

Use grep (POSIX) / findstr (Windows) to extract all unique labels.

Step 2: Parse Each Label

Split each label into:

• Prefix: the part before the first : (e.g. def, thm, lem, cor, prop, ex, note)
• Name: the kebab-case part after the : (e.g. limit-of-sequence-of-sets)
• Display Name: convert kebab-case to Title Case with spaces
  • Replace - with
  • Capitalize first letter of each word
  • Example: limit-of-sequence-of-sets → Limit of a Sequence of Sets

Step 3: Organize Alphabetically

Group entries by the first letter of the Display Name (uppercase A-Z).

For each letter group, sort entries alphabetically.

Step 4: Generate Glossary Content

Generate the following structure at the end of the file:

#part("Appendix")
= Glossary

== A
- *#link(<def:...>)[Display Name]*
- *#link(<thm:...>)[Display Name]*

== B
- ...

Rules:

• Use == <Letter> for each letter heading
• Use - *#link(<tag>)[Display Name]* for each entry (bullet + link)
• Skip letters that have no entries
• Delete any existing glossary content between #part("Appendix") and the end of file before inserting the new one

Step 5: Verify

Compile the file after insertion:

typst compile "<subject>/initial.typ" "<subject>/initial.pdf" --root .
