./print/tex-glossaries, Create glossaries and lists of acronyms

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 4.53, Package name: tex-glossaries-4.53, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

The glossaries package supports acronyms and multiple
glossaries, and has provision for operation in several
languages (using the facilities of either babel or
polyglossia). New entries are defined to have a name and
description (and optionally an associated symbol). Support for
multiple languages is offered, and plural forms of terms may be
specified. An additional package, glossaries-accsupp, can make
use of the accsupp package mechanisms for accessibility support
for PDF files containing glossaries. The user may define new
glossary styles, and preambles and postambles can be specified.
There is provision for loading a database of terms, but only
terms used in the text will be added to the relevant glossary.
The package uses an indexing program to provide the actual
glossary; either makeindex or xindy may serve this purpose, and
a Perl script is provided to serve as interface. This package
requires the mfirstuc package. The package supersedes the
author's glossary package (which is now obsolete).

4.50
**Major new version**
UTF-8 is supported and some of the sentence case commands, such as
\Glsentrytext can expand in PDF bookmarks. If your document uses \ 
\MakeTextUppercase or
\MakeTextLowercase, you will need to explicitly load textcase.sty if you want to \ 
continue
using them. Alternatively substitute them with \glsuppercase and \glslowercase.

All deprecated and obsolete commands and options that have been retained for
backward-compatibility for over 6 years have been removed.

The other significant change is that the default setting for esclocations and
\ifglswrallowprimitivemods is now false. If a document requiring xindy has \ 
locations that
expand to robust or protected commands you may need to switch these on or see the
"Problematic Locations" section of the user manual.
