+The makeglos package
+
+
+makeglos is a LaTeX package to include a glossary into a document.
+The glossary must be prepared by an external program, like xindy or
+makeindex.
+
+
+Features
+
+* Can be easily configured: various aspects of the appearance of the
+ glossary can be changed by a simple \renewcommand.
+
+* Multi-language capability: certain keywords, like the name of the
+ glossary, can be made language-dependent.
+
+* Flexible: works equally well for document classes with a book- or
+ report-like structure (divided into \chapters) and for article-like
+ documents, like the documentation for the makeglos package (based on
+ \sections)
+* Equivalent: makeglos is to glossaries what makeidx is to indices.
