Easy. Just enter <br/> <span class="pre-in-pp"> .TOC </span> as the very last macro of your document file. Mom will have picked up all document titles (in <a href="rectoverso.html#collate">collated</a> documents) and headings, as well as the endnotes section and bibliography, if they exist, and assigned them the appropriate page number. Talk about a no-brainer! </p> <p> That said, tables of contents have even more control macros than endnotes. As always, the reason for so many control macros is so that if you want to change just about any aspect of the table of contents’ typographic appearance, you can. </p> <h2 id="toc-appearance" class="docs">Tables of contents appearance and behaviour</h2> <p> When you output a table of contents (with <kbd><a href="#toc">.TOC</a></kbd>), mom finishes processing the last page of your document, then breaks to a new page for printing the table of contents. </p> <p> Mom follows standard typesetting conventions for tables of contents. To this end, if <a href="headfootpage.html#headers">HEADERS</a> are enabled for the document, the first page of the table of contents has no page header, but does have a first page number (roman numeral), always “i”, in the bottom margin. If <a href="headfootpage.html#footers">FOOTERS</a> are enabled for the document, the first page has neither a footer, nor a page number in the top margin. (If you absolutely must have a page footer on the first page of the table of contents, simply invoke <a href="headfootpage.html#footer-on-first-page"><kbd>.FOOTER_ON_FIRST_PAGE</kbd></a> immediately before <kbd>.TOC</kbd>.) Subsequent table of contents pages have both page headers or footers and a page number. </p> <p> Entries in a table of contents are hierarchically indented, as you would expect, and if headings are numbered in the body of the document, you can instruct mom to number them in the table of contents as well (see <a href="#toc-entry-numbers">TOC_ENTRY_NUMBERS</a>). </p> <p> Tables of contents are never set in columns, regardless of whether the rest of the document is. Lastly, if <a href="rectoverso.html#recto-verso">recto/verso</a> printing is enabled, the table of contents respects it. This sometimes leads to tables of contents that begin with the wrong margins, but the margins can be corrected either by outputting a <a href="headfootpage.html#blank-pages">BLANKPAGE</a> or by using the control macro <a href="#toc-rv-switch">TOC_RV_SWITCH</a>. </p> <p> The overall table of contents <a href="definitions.html#family">family</a>, <a href="definitions.html#ps">point size</a> and <a href="definitions.html#leading">lead</a> can be altered with <a href="definitions.html#controlmacro">control macros</a>, as can the family, <a href="definitions.html#font">font</a>, point size and indent of each level of entry. Furthermore, the page numbering style can be changed, as can the amount of visual space reserved for entry page numbers. </p> <h2 id="pdf-output" class="docs">PDF output</h2> <p> When files containing a table of contents are processed with <a href="using.html#pdfmom" style="font-weight: bold">pdfmom</a>, entries in the table of contents are clickable links when the document is viewed at the screen. The colour of the links is the last <kbd>.PDF_LINK_COLOR</kbd> in effect, so if you wish another colour, it should be set just before issuing <kbd>.TOC</kbd>. </p> <p> When preparing files for printing, coloured links in both the table of contents and elsewhere in the document may not be desirable. You can disable the colour by passing <a href="using.html#pdfmom" style="font-weight: bold">pdfmom</a> the <kbd>-c</kbd> option, like this: <br/> <span class="pre-in-pp"> pdfmom -c doc.mom > doc.pdf </span> </p> <h3 id="positioning" class="docs">Positioning the Table of Contents</h3> <p> Because a table of contents can’t be generated until the end of a document (hence the last macro in the file), it is also the last page of the document. While this is desirable for some language conventions—French, for example—it is not desirable for others. </p> <h4 id="auto-relocate-toc" class="docs">Automatic PDF relocation of the Table of Contents</h4> <p> When <a href="using.html#pdfmom" style="font-weight: bold">pdfmom</a> is used to process files with a table of contents, the macro <kbd>.AUTO_RELOCATE_TOC</kbd> can be used to reposition the table of contents to the top of the output document, with the presence of a cover and/or title page sensibly taken into account. Full AUTO_RELOCATE_TOC usage is described in the manual, <a href="http://www.schaffter.ca/mom/pdf/mom-pdf.pdf"><span class="book-title">Producing PDFs with groff and mom</span></a>. </p> <p> In order to take advantage of automatic table of contents repositioning, you must use <a href="using.html#pdfmom" style="font-weight: bold">pdfmom</a>. with groff’s native PDF driver (ie without the <strong>-Tps</strong> flag). Files that need to be processed with the <strong>-Tps</strong> flag require you to reposition the table of contents yourself with <strong>psselect</strong>, described below. </p> <div class="box-tip"> <p class="tip"> <span class="note">Note:</span> Note: <kbd>.AUTO_RELOCATE_TOC</kbd> must come before <a href="docprocessing.html#start">START</a>. </p> </div> <h4 id="psselect" class="docs"><span style="text-transform: none">Using psselect to relocate the Table of Contents in PostScript documents</span></h4> <p> To change the location of the table of contents in files processed with <kbd>pdfmom -Tps</kbd>, you have two choices: rearrange the pages by hand (okay for one or two hard copies), or use the <strong>psselect</strong> programme provided by the <strong>psutils</strong> suite of tools (which you may have to install as a package from your distribution if it is not already on your system). </p> <p> The procedure for using <strong>psselect</strong> to put the table of contents near the beginning of a document begins by you determining how many pages it contains. You can do this by previewing the document with the document viewer of your choice (gv, Okular, Evince, etc). </p> <p> Once you know the number of pages in the table of contents, you use <strong>psselect</strong> to place them where you want. </p> <p> Say, for example, the table of contents runs to just one page. The command to place a one-page table of contents at the start of a document is: <br/> <span class="pre-in-pp"> psselect -p _1,1-_2 </span> The <kbd>-p</kbd> option instructs <kbd>psselect</kbd> that what follows is a comma-separated list of the order in which you want pages of a document rearranged. The underscore character means "counting backwards from the end of the document". Thus, the above says: "Put the last page first (ie the table of contents), followed by all pages from the original first page up to the second to last (ie the last page before the table of contents)." </p> <p> If your table of contents runs to two pages, the option to <kbd>psselect</kbd> would look like this: <br/> <span class="pre-in-pp"> psselect -p _1-_2,1-_3 </span> If your table of contents runs to two pages and you have a cover page, the command would look like this: <br/> <span class="pre-in-pp"> psselect -p 1,_1-_2,2-_3 </span> </p> <div class="box-tip"> <p class="tip"> <span class="note">Note:</span> <kbd>psselect</kbd> outputs to stdout, so you have to redirect the output to a new file. <br/> <span class="pre-in-pp" style="margin-bottom: -1em"> psselect -p <page list> <file>.ps > <new-file>.ps </span> </p> </div> <!-- -TOC- --> <div class="macro-id-overline"> <h3 id="toc" class="macro-id">The TOC macro</h3> </div> <div class="box-macro-args"> Macro: <b>TOC</b> <kbd class="macro-args">[ INCLUDE_TITLE ]</kbd> </div> <p> If you want a table of contents, just place <kbd>.TOC</kbd> at the very end of your document. Mom takes care of the rest. </p> <p> The optional argument, <kbd>INCLUDE_TITLE</kbd>, is needed only if your document is standalone, i.e. is not collated, for example an essay. By default, mom does not include the title (and page number) of standalone documents in the Table of Contents since it is largely redundant.

The default is the prevailing document family. </p> <p> All page elements in the table of contents also have their own _FAMILY control macros, which can be used on a case-by-case basis to override the default family set with TOC_FAMILY. </p> <!-- -TOC_PT_SIZE- --> <div id="toc-pt-size" class="box-macro-args"> Macro: <b>TOC_PT_SIZE</b> <kbd class="macro-args"><base type size of the toc></kbd> </div> <p class="requires"> • Does not require a <a href="definitions.html#unitofmeasure">unit of measure</a>; points is assumed </p> <p> Unlike most other control macros that deal with size of document elements, TOC_PT_SIZE takes as its argument an absolute value, relative to nothing. (Compare this with the <a href="docelement.html#point-size">_SIZE</a> control macros.) The argument represents the base point size of tables of contents from which the size of all other table of contents elements are calculated. </p> <p> The default for <a href="docprocessing.html#printstyle">PRINTSTYLE <kbd>TYPESET</kbd></a> is 12.5 points (the same default size used in the body of the document). </p> <!-- -TOC_LEAD- --> <div id="toc-lead" class="box-macro-args"> Macro: <b>TOC_LEAD</b> <kbd class="macro-args"><leading of the toc> [ ADJUST ]</kbd> </div> <p class="requires"> • Does not require a <a href="definitions.html#unitofmeasure">unit of measure</a>; points is assumed </p> <p> Unlike most other control macros that deal with leading of document elements, TOC_LEAD takes as its argument an absolute value, relative to nothing.

Additional table of contents control macros</h4> <p> The following five macros allow you to </p> <ul style="margin-top: -.5em; margin-left: -.5em;"> <li>instruct mom to <a href="#toc-appends-author">append author(s) to</a> <a href="docprocessing.html#title">TITLE</a> <a href="toc-appends-author">entries</a></li> <li><a href="#toc-title-entry">alter the wording of</a> <a href="docprocessing.html#title">TITLE</a> <a href="#toc-title-entry">entries</a></li> <li>instruct mom to <a href="#space-toc-items">space table of contents entries</a> pleasingly</li> <li>establish <a href="#toc-padding">how many placeholders to leave for page number references</a></li> <li><a href="#toc-rv-switch">switch table of contents page margins</a> should they be incorrect for recto/verso printing</li> </ul> <!-- -TOC_APPENDS_AUTHOR- --> <div id="toc-appends-author" class="box-macro-args"> Macro: <b>TOC_APPENDS_AUTHOR</b> <kbd class="macro-args"><none> | "<name(s) of authors>"</kbd> </div> <p> In certain kinds of collated documents, different authors are responsible for the articles or stories contained within them. In such documents, you may wish to have the author or authors appended to the table of contents’ title entry for each story or article. </p> <p> If you invoke <kbd>.TOC_APPENDS_AUTHOR</kbd> <i>without</i> an argument, mom appends the first argument you passed to <a href="docprocessing.html#author">AUTHOR</a> to table of contents title entries, separated by a front-slash. </p> <p> If you invoke <kbd>.TOC_APPENDS_AUTHOR</kbd> <i>with</i> an argument (surrounded by double-quotes), mom will append it to the table of contents title entries instead. This is useful if you have multiple authors you wish to identify by last name only. For example, if three authors—Joe Blough, Jane Doe, and John Deere—are responsible for a single article <br/> <span class="pre-in-pp"> .TOC_APPENDS_AUTHOR "Blough et al." </span> would be a good way to identify them in the table of contents. </p> <!-- -TOC_TITLE_ENTRY- --> <div id="toc-title-entry" class="box-macro-args"> Macro: <b>TOC_TITLE_ENTRY</b> <kbd class="macro-args">"<alternate wording for a title entry in the toc>"</kbd> </div> <p> In <a href="rectoverso.html#collate">collated</a> documents, the title of each chapter appears in the table of contents. It may sometimes happen that you don’t want the title as it appears in the table of contents to be the same as what appears in the <a href="definitions.html#docheader">docheader</a>. You might, for example, want to shorten it. Or, in the case of chapters where the docheader contains both a chapter number and a chapter title, like this <br/> <span class="pre-in-pp"> Chapter 6 Burning Bush — Maybe God Was Right </span> you might want only the chapter title, not the chapter number, to show up in the table of contents. (By default, <kbd>.TOC</kbd> generates both.) </p> <p> If you want to change the wording of a title entry in the table of contents, simply invoke <br/> <span class="pre-in-pp"> .TOC_TITLE_ENTRY </span> with the desired wording, enclosed in double-quotes. Using the example, above, <br/> <span class="pre-in-pp"> .CHAPTER 6 .CHAPTER_TITLE "Burning Bush — Maybe God Was Right" .TOC_TITLE_ENTRY "Burning Bush" .DOCTYPE CHAPTER </span> would identify chapter 6 in the table of contents simply as “Burning Bush”. </p> <!-- -SPACE_TOC_ITEMS- --> <div id="space-toc-items" class="box-macro-args"> Macro: <b>SPACE_TOC_ITEMS</b></kbd> </div> <p> If you’d like mom to add a small amount of space between table of contents entry levels, use <kbd>.SPACE_TOC_ITEMS</kbd>. Mom will visually group entry levels in a way that's pleasing to the eye. The only catch to this macro is that the bottom margins of table of contents pages may not align perfectly. </p> <!-- -TOC_PADDING- --> <div id="toc-padding" class="box-macro-args"> Macro: <b>TOC_PADDING</b> <kbd class="macro-args"><number of placeholders to allow for page number listings></kbd> </div> <p> By default, mom allows room for 3 digits in the page number references of table of contents entries. If you’d like some other number of placeholders, say 2 (if your document runs to less than 100 pages), do <br/> <span class="pre-in-pp"> .TOC_PADDING 2 </span> </p> <!-- -TOC_RV_SWITCH- --> <div id="toc-rv-switch" class="box-macro-args"> Macro: <b>TOC_RV_SWITCH</b> </div> <p> TOC_RV_SWITCH doesn’t take an argument.

I still need more!</h4> <p> If there is some aspect of Table of Contents formatting for which no TOC control macros are provided, mom has a special <a href="definitions.html#toggle">toggle macro</a> to help out: TOC_PAGE_SETTINGS. </p> <p> TOC_PAGE_SETTINGS allows you to enter extra formatting changes for the Table of Contents as if it were simply another collated section or chapter of a document. Because it’s a toggle macro, invoking it by itself begins collecting your formatting directives, and invoking it with any argument (<b>OFF, QUIT, END</b>...) stops the collection. </p> <p> TOC_PAGE_SETTINGS is special in that the formatting commands contained within it must be preceded by <kbd>\!</kbd> (that’s backslash-exclamation point). </p> <p id="toc-page-settings-example"> For example, say you want to redesign the default page headers for the Tables of Contents so that it only contains the document title on the left and “Contents” in italics on the right, and furthermore adjust the footer margin and footer gap, this is how you’d do it: <br/> <span class="pre-in-pp"> .TOC_PAGE_SETTINGS \!.HEADER_RECTO L "^\E*[$TITLE]#\*[IT]Contents\*[PREV]^" \!.FOOTER_MARGIN 3P \!.B_MARGIN 6P+3p .TOC_PAGE_SETTINGS END </span> (For an explanation of why the example uses <kbd>.B_MARGIN</kbd> to set/change the footer gap, see <a href="headfootpage.html#gap-note">here</a>.) </p> <p> TOC_PAGE_SETTINGS can be put in the stylesheet section of a document (ie after <a href="docprocessing.html#printstyle">PRINTSTYLE</a> and before <a href="docprocessing.html#start">START</a>) or invoked just before <a href="#toc">TOC</a>. </p> <div class="rule-long"><hr/></div> <!-- Navigation links --> <table style="width: 100%; margin-top: 12px;"> <tr> <td style="width: 33%;"><a href="toc.html">Back to Table of Contents</a></td> <td style="width: 24%; text-align: center;"><a href="#top">Top</a></td> <td style="width: 42%; text-align: right;"><a href="refer.html">Next: Bibliographies and references</a></td> </tr> </table> </div> <div class="bottom-spacer"><br/></div> </body> </html>
