[TxMt] LaTeX bundle: index-macro problems

hi,

any ideas why the standard indexing command doesn't work in the two  
situations described below?

(i) given the following text which is to be inserted into the index:

	``functional-typological'' approach

upon marking the phrase and issuing shift-control-i the following  
erroneous output produced:

	functional-typological'' approach\index{functional-typological''  
approach}


this is the command behind the scenes:

	{
	command = "echo -n \"\\\\index{s\\$0}{$TM_SELECTED_TEXT} 
$TM_SELECTED_TEXT\"";
	input = none;
	output = insertAsSnippet;
	}

behind which we have:

	selectWord:
	executeCommandWithOptions:

what's the reason for "``" to be eaten by the command?


(ii) given the following text:

	Proto-Indo-European (PIE) to

"Proto-Indo-European (PIE)" is to be inserted, hence this but not "to"  
gets marked, then shift-control-i. the result is:

	Proto-Indo-European (PIE) to\index{Proto-Indo-European (PIE) to}

that is, wrong position of the index-tag and an erroneously in the tag  
included "to".


thanks,
christoph
