Glossary troubleshooting

The glossary is difficult to get started. If you are in a hurry, consider writing it by hand. Here's what I did to get it going using the nomencl package. Jakob Suckale

changed in main doc

/usepackage{nomecl}

/makenomenclature

/print nomenclature

how to place a nomenclature entry

\nomenclature[zcif]{$CIF$}{Cauchy's Integral Formula}
z for abbreviations (defined in .cls)

\nomenclature[sorting]{XYZ}{description}

how to generate the files required

makeindex filename.nlo -s path/nomencl.ist -o filename.nls

nomencl.ist = index style file

e.g. with full paths on my systems:

/usr/local/gwTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin7.9.0/makeindex thesis.nlo -s /usr/local/gwTeX/texmf.texlive/makeindex/nomencl/nomencl.ist -o thesis.nls

or define TexShop engine: ~/Library/TexShop/Engines/Nomencl.engine

makeindex "${1%%.tex}.nlo" -s /usr/local/gwTeX/texmf.texlive/makeindex/nomencl/nomencl.ist -o "${1%%.tex}.nls"

chmod u+x Nomencl.engine
