OT: Index page ranges

[Rick Quatro]

Hi Framers,

This is more of a curiosity than anything. I was browsing the index in a
book last night and I noticed that at the end of page ranges, common numbers
are suppressed. For example 244-7 instead of 244-247 and 138-41 instead of
138-141. Is this simply to save space, or is there some kind of style
recommendation for this? Thanks for any insight.
