2.7 Defining new theorem like environment
When you use the \newtheorem command you have to spell the name of the environment
using tokens like \alef and \bet as in (note the \R{}):
\newtheorem{theorem}{\R{\mem\shin\pe\tet}}
Table 2.1 lists all the Hebrew letters tokens.
\alef \zayin \lamed \ayin \resh
\bet \het \finalmem \finalpe \shin
\gimel \tet \mem \pe \tav
\dalet \yod \finalnun \finaltsadi
\he \finalkaf \nun \tsadi
\vav \kaf \samekh \qof
2.8 Creating an index
Table 2.1: Hebrew letters token names
In order to create an index use the makeidx package. Put in the preamble:
\usepackage{makeidx}
You also have to put a \printindex command where you want the index to appear.
Whenever you want to add a word/term to the index use the \index command. Note that
what’s inside the braces will not show on the text, so commonly you’ll repeat it outside, as in:
I want this term\index{term} to appear in the index
