Indexing sharepoint lists with ps

Question

I would like to index a column in a list with powershell.

I have a problem, when i retrieve the list how can i set what field should be put to index? Is there a special command, can anyone provide me with example or give me a hint how to implement it.

Thanks

If I understand correctly you can retrieve field form filed collection of a list and set Indexed property to true

$spField = $spList.Fields["FieldName"]
$spField.Indexed = $true
$spField.Update()
