Is it possible to customise memoir
‘s index so that it has more than two columns? My index entries are single Chinese characters, so even twocolindex
results in way too much whitespace.
Use the idxlayout
package. It allows for indexes with more than two columns and is responsive to the index-related options and commands of the memoir
class.
Disclosure: I'm the package author.
documentclass{memoir}
% usepackage{makeidx}% Emulated by memoir
makeindex
usepackage[columns=3]{idxlayout}
begin{document}
chapter{foo}
Some text.index{Alpha}index{Bravo}index{Charlie}index{Delta}index{Echo}index{Foxtrott}
printindex
end{document}

Sorry for ressurrecting an old thread, but I'd like to provide another suggestion for completeness' sake. :)
The most recent version of the imakeidx
package is memoir
-compliant. We can easily use it to customize our index, including the number of columns. :)
documentclass{memoir}
usepackage{imakeidx}[2012/05/09]
makeindex[columns=3]
begin{document}
chapter{Hello}
Some text.index{Apple}index{Apricot}index{Avocado}index{Banana}
index{Bilberry}index{Blackberry}index{Blackcurrant}index{Blueberry}
index{Currant}index{Cherry}index{Cherimoya}index{Clementine}
