4.8.4 Alternative contents files

In addition to the usual table of contents, you may want to have a list of figures, list of tables, or other such contents-like list. You can do this with \definecontentsfile{abbrev}. All of the above commands are actually a special case that Eplain predefines with

     \definecontentsfile{toc}

The abbrev is used both for the file extension and in the control sequence names.
