"after method" nad "repeat method" entries

Both the "after method" and "repeat method" entries in the index at the back of the 11/04 printing refer the reader to page 287, but there is no material describing the after() and/or repeat() methods of the MainWindow on this page.

In fact, a search of Chapter 15 failed to find such material either, other than a brief mention of their existence under TIMER_EVENTS on page 357.

I finally stumbled on some documentation for these methods in Chapter 13 on pages 305-306. The index should be updated accordingly, and ideally the TIMER_EVENTS sub-paragraph should refer to the Chapter 13 material too.
