LaTeX Package : glossary v 2.4
Last Modified : 20th July 2006
Author : Nicola Talbot
Files : glossary.dtx - documented source file
glossary.ins - installation script
This package is provided to assist generating a glossary. It has
a certain amount of flexibility allowing the user to customize the
format of the glossary and define new glossary-style objects. It
is also possible to define acronyms.
To extract the code do:
latex glossary.ins
This will create the files glossary.sty, glossary.perl,
makeglos.pl and some sample files. Move
glossary.sty to a subdirectory of your local texmf tree
(e.g. $LOCALTEXMF/tex/latex/contrib/) and glossary.perl
to the LaTeX2HTML style files directory (e.g. latex2html/styles).
The Perl script makeglos.pl provides an easy interface to
makeindex for those who can't remember (or can't be bothered) all
the required switches. See documentation for more details.
To extract the documentation do:
latex glossary.dtx
makeindex -s gind.ist glossary
makeindex -s gglo.ist -o glossary.gls glossary.glo
latex glossary.dtx
latex glossary.dtx
Alternatively, if you use pdflatex instead of latex, the
documentation will have hyperlinks. If you want documentation
on the code, remove the line:
