<TITLE>A Chapter About IndexTerms</TITLE>
<PARA>IndexTerms can be collected
in metadata container, within an ITermSet.
</PARA>
<PARA>This paragraph deals with two subjects that should
be listed in
the index:  how to rotate your terminal and how to adjust
it.  The information on rotation goes in the index
to the current document; that on adjustment goes in that
index and the index to the document set of which the
current document is a part.
For the topic of rotation, this is the best place to look
for information, so the 
<SGMLTAG CLASS="attribute">Significance</SGMLTAG> attribute is set to 
&ldquo;Preferred&rdquo;.
