Do you want to create a completely new index type (in the style of GiST
and GIN), you want to look here:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/static/indexam.html

If you want to create a index on a newly created type, look here:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/static/indexes.html

concepts, completely different source code.

Alternativly, tell us in a bit more detail what your goal in, then we
might be able to work it out also.
