I'm using makeindex to generate an index. I have problems
when I try to use underscores (\_) in \index commands.
The \_ sign are translated into some surprisingly complicated
code in the .idx file, and this code is not treated properly
by makeindex. makeindex complains that these lines contain
an extra '@' and rejects them.

Does anybody know a solution or a workaround for this problem?
