Define a custom page variable in local/config.php:

    $FmtPV['$Group1'] = 'substr($group, 0, 1)';

Then, use a pagelist template of:

    [[#alphalist]]
    (:template defaults order=$Name:)
    (:template first {=$Group1}:)

    {$Group1}
    (:template each:)
    * [[{=$Group}/{=$Name}]]
    [[#alphalistend]]

One can then display the alphabetical list with fmt='alphalist'
in a pagelist or search command.
