I'm new to the world of nroff macro writing and I would like to whip
up a little macro to use in a MM document.  Basically, I'm trying to
force a string of text and a page number into the table of contents of
a MM document.  I can't use the ".H" macros because I don's want the
string to appear as a header.  I've looked at the nroff "code" for the
".H" macro and the ".TC" macro but I can't figure out which parts
control the formation of the table of contents.  (Remember, I'm new at
this.)  Can someone out there give me some pointers?

----------

The .H macro call .)E to insert an entry into the table of contents.
Is this what you need?
