+% Set the attribute "insertdots" set to "true" to automatically
+% insert periods between the letters in initialism:
+\glssetcategoryattribute{initialism}{insertdots}{true}

+% This can cause a problem if any of the initialisms occur at the

+% Now for an abbreviation without dots. This is strictly speaking
+% also an initialism, but it's going to be assigned the standard
+% "abbreviation" category:
+\newabbreviation{html}{HTML}{hypertext markup language}
+% (This will use the style currently set for the "abbreviation"
+% category, which is the short-long style by default.)
