Book of tunes with an index

Greetings -

I'm running LilyPond 2.19.80 under Linux/Ubuntu 16.04.

I have a fair amount of experience with LilyPond, but none with lilypond-book or LaTeX.

I'm assembling a collection of fiddle tunes, and I'd like an index. I thought of using a table of contents, but that won't quite work, I don't think. The problem is that some tunes are known by multiple names, and I'd like a quick way to find a tune under any of its names. I'd like the index to precede the tunes (like a table of contents).

Is there a fairly straightforward way to accomplish this? The learning curve for LaTeX seems rather steep, and I don't think I would need LaTex for anything besides the index. Same with lilypond-book. I could be mistaken.

I already have the tunes transcribed, with alternative titles. I also have a spreadsheet that contains columns for title, two or three alternative titles, and the LY filename.

I am open to suggestions.

Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions,

Ralph
