.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
\&\fBbib2gls\fR [\fIoption\fR]+ \fIauxfile\fR
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBbib2gls\fR is designed to work with the \fBglossaries-extra\fR LaTeX
package. (The \fBrecord\fR package option is required.) The application
performs two functions in one: (1) selects entries from .bib files
according to information found in the \fIauxfile\fR (similar to
\&\fBbibtex\fR); (2) hierarchically sorts entries and collates location
lists (similar to \fBmakeindex\fR and \fBxindy\fR). The .aux extension may
be omitted from \fIauxfile\fR.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.IX Header "OPTIONS"
.IP "\fB\-\-help\fR or \fB\-h\fR" 4

.IX Item "--debug [level]"
Switch on the debug mode (optionally at the given \fIlevel\fR, which

debug mode is switched off.
.IP "\fB\-\-no\-debug\fR (or \fB\-\-nodebug\fR)" 4
.IX Item "--no-debug (or --nodebug)"
Switch off debug mode. (Equivalent to \fB\-\-debug\fR \fB0\fR)

.IX Item "--verbose"
Switch on verbose mode.
.IP "\fB\-\-no\-verbose\fR (or \fB\-\-noverbose\fR)" 4

Use language resource file for \fIlang\fR (which should be an \s-1IETF\s0
locale tag).
.IP "\fB\-\-log\-file\fR \fIfile\fR (or \fB\-t\fR <file>)" 4
.IX Item "--log-file file (or -t <file>)"
Set the transcript file.
.IP "\fB\-\-dir\fR \fIdirectory\fR (or \fB\-d\fR <directory>)" 4

Files are relative to \fIdirectory\fR. (This doesn't change the current
working directory.)
.IP "\fB\-\-tex\-encoding\fR \fIname\fR" 4
.IX Item "--tex-encoding name"
Set the character encoding for the output files. This overrides the
setting given in \fIauxfile\fR.

(default).
.IP "\fB\-\-no\-interpret\fR" 4

.IP "\fB\-\-break\-space\fR" 4
.IX Item "--break-space"
Interpret \f(CW\*(C`~\*(C'\fR (tilde) character and \f(CW\*(C`\enobreakspace\*(C'\fR as a normal space.
.IP "\fB\-\-no\-break\-space\fR" 4
.IX Item "--no-break-space"
Interpret \f(CW\*(C`~\*(C'\fR (tilde) and \f(CW\*(C`\enobreakspace\*(C'\fR as a non-breaking space (default).
.IP "\fB\-\-cite\-as\-record\fR" 4
.IX Item "--cite-as-record"
Treat \f(CW\*(C`\ecitation\*(C'\fR as an ignored record.
.IP "\fB\-\-no\-cite\-as\-record\fR" 4

.IP "\fB\-\-warn\-non\-bib\-fields\fR" 4
.IX Item "--warn-non-bib-fields"
Warn if internal non-bib fields are found in the \fI.bib\fR file.
.IP "\fB\-\-no\-warn\-non\-bib\-fields\fR" 4
.IX Item "--no-warn-non-bib-fields"
Don't warn if internal non-bib fields are found in the \fI.bib\fR file.

only use this option if you have taken appropriate precautions.
.IP "\fB\-\-warn\-unknown\-entry\-types\fR" 4
.IX Item "--warn-unknown-entry-types"
Warn if any unknown entry types are found in the \fI.bib\fR file.

.IP "\fB\-\-support\-unicode\-script\fR" 4
.IX Item "--support-unicode-script"
Text superscript (\f(CW\*(C`\etextsuperscript\*(C'\fR) or subscripts (\f(CW\*(C`\etextsubscript\*(C'\fR)
will use Unicode superscript/subscript characters if available.
For example, \f(CW\*(C`\etextsuperscript{2}\*(C'\fR will be converted to U+00B2
(superscript two).
.IP "\fB\-\-no\-support\-unicode\-script\fR" 4
.IX Item "--no-support-unicode-script"
Text superscript (\f(CW\*(C`\etextsuperscript\*(C'\fR) or subscripts (\f(CW\*(C`\etextsubscript\*(C'\fR)
won't be converted to Unicode superscript/subscript characters.
For example, \f(CW\*(C`\etextsuperscript{2}\*(C'\fR will be converted to \f(CW\*(C`<sup>2</sup>\*(C'\fR
and the markup will be stripped leaving just the character 2.
.IP "\fB\-\-packages\fR \fIlist\fR (or \fB\-p\fR \fIlist\fR)" 4
.IX Item "--packages list (or -p list)"
Instruct the TeX parser library to pretend the packages listed 
in \fIlist\fR have been used by the document. Note that there's only a
limited number of packages supported by the TeX parser library.
This option has a cumulative action so \fB\-\-packages wasysym,pifont\fR
is the same as \fB\-\-packages wasysym \-\-packages pifont\fR.
.Sp
You can find out the list of supported packages with
\&\fB\-\-list\-known\-packages\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-custom\-packages\fR \fIlist\fR" 4
.IX Item "--custom-packages list"
Instruct the TeX parser library to attempt to parse the 
packages listed in \fIlist\fR. This is intended for simple custom
packages that don't contain complex code.
.IP "\fB\-\-ignore\-packages\fR \fIlist\fR (or \fB\-k\fR \fIlist\fR)" 4
.IX Item "--ignore-packages list (or -k list)"
Don't parse the log file for the packages listed in \fIlist\fR. Note
that \fB\-\-packages\fR overrides this option, so if the same package is
listed in both \fB\-\-ignore\-packages\fR and \fB\-\-packages\fR then the
interpreter will check if it's supported. This option has a
cumulative action. Only known packages may be included in
\&\fIlist\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-list\-known\-packages\fR" 4
.IX Item "--list-known-packages"
Lists all the packages that have are known to the TeX parser
library and then exits (with exit code 0). Any of the listed
packages may be used in \fB\-\-packages\fR or \fB\-\-ignore\-packages\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-mfirstuc\-protection\fR \fIfields\fR|\fBall\fR (or \fB\-u\fR \fIfields\fR|\fBall\fR)" 4
.IX Item "--mfirstuc-protection fields|all (or -u fields|all)"
Insert an empty group if fields start with certain problematic
commands to protect against case-changing commands like \f(CW\*(C`\eGls\*(C'\fR.
.Sp
The default is to do this for all fields.  To do this for only a
subset of fields, set \fIfields\fR to a comma-separated list of fields
(e.g. \fBname,short,long\fR).  The keyword \fBall\fR indicates all fields.
.IP "\fB\-\-no\-mfirstuc\-protection\fR" 4
.IX Item "--no-mfirstuc-protection"
Switch off the auto-insertion of an empty group for all fields.
.IP "\fB\-\-mfirstuc\-math\-protection\fR" 4
.IX Item "--mfirstuc-math-protection"
Switch on the auto-insertion of an empty group for math-shift (\f(CW\*(C`$\*(C'\fR).
This option will be overridden by \fB\-\-no\-mfirstuc\-protection\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-no\-mfirstuc\-math\-protection\fR" 4
.IX Item "--no-mfirstuc-math-protection"
Switch off the auto-insertion of an empty group for math-shift (\f(CW\*(C`$\*(C'\fR).
.IP "\fB\-\-nested\-link\-check\fR \fIlist\fR|\fBnone\fR" 4
.IX Item "--nested-link-check list|none"
Check each field listed in \fIlist\fR for potentially problematic
nested link text. (Default list: name, text, plural, first,
firstplural, short, shortplural, long, longplural, symbol).
.Sp
If \fBnone\fR, disable check.
.IP "\fB\-\-no\-nested\-link\-check\fR" 4
.IX Item "--no-nested-link-check"
Don't check for potentially problematic nested link text.
(Equivalent to \fB\-\-nested\-link\-check\fR \fBnone\fR)
.IP "\fB\-\-shortcuts\fR \fIoption\fR" 4
.IX Item "--shortcuts option"
Check for the shortcut commands when searching for dependencies.
Permitted values of \fIoption\fR: \fBacronyms\fR (or \fBacro\fR), \fBac\fR,
\&\fBabbreviations\fR (or \fBabbr\fR), \fBall\fR (or \fBtrue\fR), \fBnone\fR (or
\&\fBfalse\fR). This overrides the setting given in \fIauxfile\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-map\-format\fR \fIkey\fR\fB:\fR\fIvalue\fR[\fB,\fR\fIkey\fR\fB:\fR\fIvalue\fR]* (or \fB\-m\fR \fIkey\fR\fB:\fR\fIvalue\fR[\fB,\fR\fIkey\fR\fB:\fR\fIvalue\fR]*)" 4
.IX Item "--map-format key:value[,key:value]* (or -m key:value[,key:value]*)"
Set location format mappings.
.IP "\fB\-\-group\fR or \fB\-g\fR" 4
.IX Item "--group or -g"

Add record count fields to entries.
.IP "\fB\-\-no\-record\-count\fR" 4
.IX Item "--no-record-count"
Don't add record count field to entries (default).
This option automatically implements \fB\-\-no\-record\-count\-unit\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-record\-count\-unit\fR or \fB\-n\fR" 4
.IX Item "--record-count-unit or -n"
Add unit record count fields to entries.
This option automatically implements \fB\-\-record\-count\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-no\-record\-count\-unit\fR" 4
.IX Item "--no-record-count-unit"
Don't add unit record count field to entries (default).
.IP "\fB\-\-trim\-fields\fR" 4

Trim leading and trailing spaces from all fields.
This option cancels \fB\-\-trim\-only\-fields\fR and \fB\-\-no\-trim\-fields\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-trim\-only\-fields\fR \fIlist\fR" 4
.IX Item "--trim-only-fields list"
Trim leading and trailing spaces from only the listed fields.
This option is cumulative but is cancelled by \fB\-\-trim\-fields\fR
and \fB\-\-no\-trim\-fields\fR. This option may not be used with
\&\fB\-\-trim\-except\-fields\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-trim\-except\-fields\fR \fIlist\fR" 4
.IX Item "--trim-except-fields list"
Trim leading and trailing spaces from all fields except those listed.
This option is cumulative but is cancelled by \fB\-\-trim\-fields\fR
and \fB\-\-no\-trim\-fields\fR. This option may not be used with
\&\fB\-\-trim\-only\-fields\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-no\-trim\-fields\fR" 4

This option cancels \fB\-\-trim\-only\-fields\fR and \fB\-\-trim\-fields\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-expand\-fields\fR" 4
