finally, ''pagestyle'' sets the page number references (slanted).
=== Individiual Individual Entries ===
Better granularity regarding the formatting of individual entries can
be achieved through the ''three-argument'' version of
=Sorting=
The sorting of the index is influenced by the current [[Language CodesLanguages#Language_tags|languagetag]]. You can override that with the {{key|language}} key of {{cmd|setupregister}}.
There are a few additional "languages" for sorting, as defined in {{src|sort-lan.mkiv}}:
* <tt>DIN 5007-1</tt> (German) normal sorting, ß = ss
Note the two possible definitions, and the pitfalls with each one. If you are still having trouble with specific {{cmd|index}} commands, try using the alternative definition. When they are used in the right context, these three possible ways of placing an index term (the plain {{cmd|index}}, or it wrapped in one of the two possible {{cmd|doflushatpar}}s, should solve any problem.
=Impact on hyphenation, and on line breaking as a consequence=
{{cmd|index}} is attached to a word, so it modifies the word boundaries. That influences its hyphenation and likely the paragraph's line breaking. To prevent that, you can write:
<texcode>
This is an indexed term\wordboundary\index{Term}. % instead of simply ... term\index{Term}.
</texcode>
That way, ConTeXt knows that the word "term" is ended by the "m" and not by something attached to it by {{cmd|index}}, and the effect on hyphenation and line breaking is the same as if we wrote:
<texcode>
This is an indexed term.
</texcode>
