Is there a way to make a single page table of contents in this style

Introduction ..................................... 1

Next Point ....................................... 2

Without generating it form a LaTex-Document? I printed a bundle of scripts for programming classes that are not writting in latex but i want to have a clean table of contents with a custom of the pages.

Thank you.

The lines of the table of contents are generated using contentsline.
You can also call this macro yourself to create a toc manually.
The general syntax is

contentsline{<chapter/section/subsection/subsubsection>}{<title>}{<page>}

and if you want these entries to be numbered you should insert numberline{<section number>} at the start of the second argument.
To use the chapter level heading you need to use a document class that supports it (like book or report).

Here is an example.
I'm numbering only half of the sections to illustrate how this works and what the result looks like.

documentclass{article}



begin{document}



section*{Table of contents}



contentsline{section}{Introduction}{1}

contentsline{subsection}{First subsection}{1}

contentsline{subsection}{Second subsection}{3}

contentsline{subsection}{Third subsection}{3}



contentsline{section}{numberline{2}First real section}{5}

contentsline{subsection}{numberline{2.1}First subsection}{5}

contentsline{subsection}{numberline{2.2}Second subsection}{6}

contentsline{subsection}{numberline{2.3}Third subsection}{8}



end{document}

Here is a version that takes care of the section numbers automatically.

documentclass{article}



newcommand*tocsection[2]{%

  stepcounter{section}%

  contentsline{section}{numberline{thesection}#1}{#2}%

}

newcommand*tocsubsection[2]{%

  stepcounter{subsection}%

  contentsline{subsection}{numberline{thesubsection}#1}{#2}%

}



begin{document}



section*{Table of contents}



tocsection{Introduction}{1}

tocsubsection{First subsection}{1}

tocsubsection{Second subsection}{3}

tocsubsection{Third subsection}{3}

tocsection{First real chapter}{5}

tocsubsection{First subsection}{5}

tocsubsection{Second subsection}{6}

tocsubsection{Third subsection}{8}



end{document}

In a document class with actual chapters, tocchapter could be implemented in the same way.

If you need to customise the appearance of the toc you can use either titletoc or tocloft.

Remark: contentsline takes an additional argument if hyperref is loaded (the target for the hyperlink).
If someone reading this wants to incorporate the above in a document that uses hyperref, you should add an additional {} after {<page>}.

You asked,

Is there a way to make a single page table of contents ... [w]ithout generating it [from] a LaTex-Document?

I assume that by "without generating it from a LaTeX document", you mean "without creating a LaTeX document prefaced by a tableofcontents directive". Since you posted your query to this site, I'm also assuming that you are not actually averse to creating this table of contents via a documentclass ... begin{document} ... end{document} structure, i.e., via a LaTeX document.

If these assumptions are correct, the following solution may be of interest to you.

documentclass{article}
