You do realize, don't you, that you can do everything you want by
loading the whole training set of courses onto an intranet, which can
then be manipulated via some simple HTML commands? There are a number
of intranet-management packages out there and emerging, and I know of
one of them (ExpressDoc) that lets you create TOCs on the fly. (I'm not
sure about doing an index in ExpressDoc, though.)
