adds anything you want to the table of contents. You need to format your entry yourself, however.
If you look into TOC of a LaTeX file, you see that its entries have the following structure
\contentsline {SECTION}{\numberline {NUMBER}TITLE}{PAGE}{HYPERLINK NAME}
(the last argument is there only if you use hyperref). So you need to:
Put \label{first_page}
on the first page.
Put \label{last_page}
on the last page
Put on the first page \addtocontents{toc}{\contentsline
{section}{\numberline{} Words}{\pageref{first_page}--\pageref{last_page}}{}}
You many need to change section
to chapter
here depending on the style you want.
Good luck!
Your information are really spare. The modification based also on the packages which creates the index. For example you can use makeidx
, scrindex
or splitidx
...
In my example I uses the class scrbook
in combination with scrindex
:
\documentclass[ngerman,idxtotoc]{scrbook}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage{scrindex}
\usepackage{etoolbox}
\usepackage[user,abspage]{zref}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\makeatletter
\renewcommand*{\idx@heading}{%
\if@openright\cleardoublepage\else\clearpage\fi%
\twocolumn[\idx@@heading{\indexname}]%
\@mkboth{\indexname}{\indexname}%
}
\renewcommand*\idx@@heading[1]{%
\phantomsection
\chapter*{\hypertarget{indexlink}{#1}}\zlabel{startindex}
\addtocontents{toc}{\protect\addvspace{\@chapterlistsgap}}
\addtocontents{toc}{%
{\usekomafont{chapterentry}%
\protect\hyperlink{indexlink}{\indexname}%
\protect\hfill%
\zpageref{startindex} -- \zpageref{endindex}%
}}
}
\AtEndEnvironment{theindex}{\zlabel{endindex}}
\makeindex
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\chapter{foo}
Text\index{Text}
\printindex

\end{document}
