Here is a legend for Kjell Crone's Indices that I put on
ftp.lysator.liu.se:/pub/comics/disney.  I made it myself, so there may
be any number of faults in it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
For every book there is one line for every story in the book.  That
line contains Index, Pages, Title Character, Artist, Title, and
Publications, in that order.

* Index

This is 01, 02, etc. for the stories.

Sometimes there are different versions of the same book, where one
version has more stories than another.  E.g., there are two versions
of DD 45, one with gag pages by Carl Barks on the inside front cover
and inside back cover, and one version with ads on those pages.  That
isn't indicated in these indices, and the stories are numbered
according to their positions in the version of the book with the most
number of stories.  Sometimes there is *another* (shorter) story in
the "ad version" of the book, as in FC 1247, where the seventh story
either is a full-page gag, or a half-page gag (with an ad taking up
the remaining half-page).  In those cases the story in the "ad
version" of the book has a trailing "a", so that would be story "07a".

FC = front cover, BC = back cover, and other full-page illustrations
at the beginning or the end of the book are called FD, FE, ... or BD,
BE, ... respectively.  Various illustrations and other stuff that
aren't comics inside the books sometimes get codes beginning with "p"
and then a page number, and sometimes they aren't listed.

One-page text stories with one illustration at the top are numbered as
the comics stories, and not indicated in any special way, though.

* Pages

This is the number of pages for the story.  A trailing "*" indicates
an extra page that isn't full.  If the story is less than one whole
page it's shown as a fraction instead.

* Title

Titles in ALL CAPS are actual titles taken from the comic books, other
titles are "descriptive titles".

Newspaper comics that are edited into a comic book format sometimes
have the copyright year before of after the title, as "'41 WHERE
THERE'S SMOKE" or "Secret invention ('41)", and sometimes the whole
date is there as in "2-9-41 TRAPPED".

Sometimes there is no title except for the date(s), as in
"KF 9-1-46--10-6-46".

* Publications

If the story is a reprint this shows the origin, with "=" followed by
the code of original comic book as given below followed with the index
of that story in that book, as given in this index.

DD	= Donald Duck
DDBP	= Donald Duck Beach Party
DDFB	= Donald Duck Fun Book
DDID	= Donald Duck in Disneyland
FC	= Four Color
gkWDCP	= Walt Disney's Christmas Parade (Gold Key)

SS	= Silly Symphonies
US	= Uncle Scrooge
VID	= Vacation in Disneyland
WDC	= Walt Disney's Comics and Stories
WDCP	= Walt Disney's Christmas Parade (Dell)
XID	= Christmas in Disneyland

For newspaper comics edited for publication sometimes the date
the (partial) date is shown here, like "(c 1941)", "XX-XX-55", or
"KF 5-14-39".  More often that is in the title instead.

Most of the time the Publication column is used to show Swedish
