Help on modifying on Indexname requested

Hello List Members,

Presently I am doing a Ph.D. dissertation of Law. One of the requirement is that all cases should be typeset
in bold letters. I accomplished this with the following:

\newcommand{\case}[1]{\textbf{#1}}

Another requirement is that there will be a 'List of Cases' showing alphabetically all the cases referred
to in the dissertation. I accomplished this by modifying the above as follows:

\newcommand{\case}[1]{\textbf{#1}\index{#1}}

When I generated the Index it is coming in two columns (which is the default). I want the list in a single
column like Contents, i.e., Sl. No. Case and Page No. I tried to modify the index command with
\renewcommand which I could not accomplish.

Likewise I wanted to change the name of 'Index' to 'List of Cases' with \renewcommand{\indexname}. Here
also I faced problem.

Help in this regard is highly appreciated.

It is not clear from above whether you have already tried the ff. solution,
but, if you have not, it is worth a try.

Copy all the lines that define the `figure' environment from, say,
article.cls to your file and change it to your favourite name for cases.
That should generate a .loc () file. You can include it by
modifying the commands for \listoffigures to suit you.

On the other hand the FAQ may throw up a link to a style file that does
this.

Manoj.

I already tried and it is working. The problems are (1) the heading is to be changed to "List of Cases" instead
of `Index', (2) The list is coming in two columns which should be in a single column.

I will try it. But the problem may be for 'lot' it looks for \caption in the table environment. But I have not
created any case environment.

The only thing \caption does vis-a-vis the list of figures is an
\addcontentsline. You can achieve that by adding an \addcontentsline in 

Does your set of cases mostly contain text, with inline maths? Then you
might be able to tinker with enumerate to get a solution. Tweak \item to
write an \addcontentsline.

Manoj.

numbered description environment

Hello,

How do I create a new env. where I can have numbered descriptions?
I want an "enumerated description" environment instead of doing

\begin{enumerate}
\item \textbf(text1} more text
\item \textbf(text2} more text
\item \textbf(text3} more text
\end{enumerate}

Is there some latex code to do it?

regards,
Sivaram

Question is not clear.

All European languages are supported by TeX/LaTeX. Indian Languages - you have to input in English - then
you will get the output in the concerned language. You have to use Itrans or other packages for this. 

DVI file cannot be used by other software. It is just like a PDF file. the difference is to view/print a DVI
file you need a DVI driver like WinDVI or xdvi or KDVI (in Unix/Linux) and to view a PDF file you need Adobe
Acrobat reader. You can also produce a PDF file using LaTeX , i.e., pdftex or pdfLaTeX.

On googling I found 'gif2eps'. Or you can use ImageMagik etc. to convert to eps.
