Well, I don't see how requiring an index entry for EVERY SINGLE FILE is shunning complexity. Maybe WRT his coding....

Any idea how to get rid of that little "y" with the two dots over it that appears at the end of all displayed pages? Tried to search for it in the source files but pasting into an xterm erases the command string! It's some sort of german character, right?
