Unfortunately I haven't seen anything like this here --
is Three a project name? Were any files corrupted? Any clues you can
glean will be useful. I don't know what input file it's talking
about...
Regards,
Julian

Hi Julian,
Many thanks, yet again. Nope, no contracts from the 3G company yet. ;)
However ... I did try to give a page the title "Rule of Three" -
complete with the quotes. Having removed these, and rebuilt the index,
the problem seems to have gone. Hopefully this is the solution. I
can't think of any other "Three" likely to be around.
Thanks again.
Alec

Ah! the quotations were probably the problem. You could
try using the HTML entity instead.

Thanks Julian. As an afterthought PS, the problem begs the question:
are there any other magic characters to avoid in titles: e.g. characters
that would have special significance in filenames, such as path
separators and wild cards, or be illegal, or have special significance
in HTML?
Regards,
Alec

Yes, C comments (/* ... */) and # at the start of a line need
to be encoded with entities to avoid preprocessing.
Also when you use macros, you need to escape any commas that
are passed to the macro, e.g.
MYMACRO(One day\, something happened)

Many thanks. I might otherwise have started a title with a #.
Best Regards,
