Hi!
Columns in demo/00Index must be separated with at least 3 spaces otherwise
the following WARNING is issued during R CMD check
...
* checking index information ... WARNING
Demos with missing or empty index information:

After a search I found out that this is noted in file
src/library/tools/R/read.00Index.R
I suggest to update the manual in the following way.
Regards, Gregor
