Basic features of four embedded indexing programs are discussed and compared with a dedicated indexing program. The programs are Word, FrameMaker, PageMaker, RoboHELP and Macrex. The tests performed duplicate tests done ten years earlier. The author outlines features that have improved during the past decade and deficiencies that still exist in embedded indexing software.

In Alain de Botton’s novel, Kiss and tell (published by Macmillan,1995), the hero/narrator, dismissed by his latest girlfriend as totally self-absorbed, determines to prove his possession of the quality of empathy by writing a biography, seeing the biographer’s mission as ‘understanding a human being as fully as one person could hope to understand another, submerging myself in a life other than my own’. For his subject he will select someone quite ordinary, to demonstrate ‘the extraordinariness of any life’. So Kiss and tell details the life of the fictitious Isabel Rogers, ‘the next person to walk into [his] life’, presented in proper biographical format. The 12 chapters begin with ‘The early years’, ‘The early dates’, ‘Family trees’; the volume comes complete with preface and index, and two sections of photographs of Isabel, her family and friends, all appearing entirely authentic. A reviewer wrote of de Botton’s previous works, Essays in love and The romantic movement: ‘his books are original hybrids, part novel, part philosophical reverie’. This hybrid novel/biography/biographical critique comprises three strands. It is at once the (pseudo-)biography of Isabel; an account of the narrator’s developing relationship with her (‘one may suggest a connection between attachment and the biographical impulse ... a true biography demands a more or less conscious emotional relationship between author and subject’); and much consideration of the nature of biography itself. The tenor of this can well be assessed by quoting the subheadings under BIOGRAPHY in the index:
在阿兰·德波顿(Alain de Botton)的小说《Kiss and tell》(麦克米伦出版社，1995年出版)中，主人公/叙述者被他最近的女朋友认为完全以自我为中心，决定通过写传记来证明他拥有同理心的品质，认为传记作者的使命是“充分理解一个人，就像一个人希望理解另一个人一样，让自己沉浸在自己以外的生活中”。作为他的主题，他将选择一个非常普通的人，以展示“任何生命的非凡之处”。所以Kiss and tell这个虚构的伊莎贝尔·罗杰斯的生活细节，“下一个走进他生活的人”，以适当的传记形式呈现。这12章以“早年”、“早期日期”、“家谱”开头;这本书有完整的序言和索引，还有伊莎贝尔、她的家人和朋友的两部分照片，这些照片看起来都是完全真实的。一位评论家在评论德波顿之前的作品《恋爱散文》和《浪漫主义运动》时写道:“他的书是原创的混合体，部分是小说，部分是哲学幻想。”这部混合小说/传记/传记体评论由三部分组成。这既是伊莎贝尔的(伪)传记;叙述者与她发展关系的叙述(人们可能会认为依恋与传记冲动之间存在联系……一部真正的传记要求作者和主体之间或多或少有意识的情感关系。以及对传记本身本质的更多考虑。通过引用索引中“传记”下的副标题，可以很好地评估这一点:

Discusses some of the findings of a British-Library-sponsored investigation of indexes to children's information books with particular reference to the importance of book indexes, the presentation of indexes, the indexing process including the cost of producing the index, the standards of children's indexes and the features of indexes which appeal to and confuse children. Some of the recommendations of the final report are given, including the recommendation that all children's information books should contain indexes and that these indexes should be compiled by professional indexers.
