With this approach, the user writes a database of terms +and definitions using a file format much like the bibliographic +databases. Then he inserts in the \LaTeX{} document a command +|\gloss{<key>}| for selecting which entries he wants to appear in the +glossary. These keys are written in an auxiliar file when \LaTeX{} is +run on the document. Then, running \bibTeX{} these entries are +extracted from the database and collected in alphabetical order in a +file. The next run of \LaTeX{} read this file and inserts it in the +appropiate point of the document, typesetting the desired glossary or +glossaries. + +The process is much like the mechanism for including the bibliographic +references. This approach has several advantages: +\begin{enumerate} +\item \bibTeX{} is available in every platform where \TeX{} is. +\item Glossary entries can be stored in databases, and you needn't + rewrite the definitions. +\item There are a lot of tools for managing \bibTeX{} databases. +\item \bibTeX{} can sort the entries and group them; furthermore, + \bibTeX-8 can sort correctly the entries in non-English + languages. (In fact, this is the main raison which the package + was first developped for.) +\item \bibTeX{} is a programable tool and you can define your own + styles for acronyms, symbols, and so on, or changing its default + behaviour. \textsf{Gloss} styles are pretty simples and creating + new ones is not difficult. +\end{enumerate} + +Of course, there also disavantages---for example, you cannot +select sorting entries word by word or letter by letter, at least +at present. + +The gloss{} bundle includes the \textsf{gloss}.sty package, a +\textsf{glsplain}.bst style, a \textsf{glsbase}.bib database, and a +\texttt{sample.tex} file with its \texttt{sample.bib} database +(and, of course, the \texttt{readme} file and this manual). + +\section{The data files} + +If you know \bibTeX, you will find this section easy to understand. +A data file contains a set of records defining terms, and its +name must have the extension \texttt{.bib}. Every entry has the +following format: +\begin{verbatim} +@gd{gnu, + word = {gnu}, + definition = {Extrange animal} +} +\end{verbatim} + +Here +\begin{itemize} +\item |gnu| is a key identifying the record; +\item |word| is the word which will be used as headword and in the + text; and +\item |definition| is the definition printed in the glossary. +\end{itemize} + +Here is the description of the available fields, and when they are used +\begin{description} +\item[word] Required. It should be given always as it would be + written at the middle of a sentence. The basic style + \textsf{glsplain} converts its first letter to uppercase for use after + a period. In the generated glossary, entries with the + same initial are grouped, preceded by a heading with that letter. + +\item[definition] Required. The definition can be as long an you + want, but you should note that implicit paragraphs (those with a + blank line) are ignored and a |\par| would be necessary. The final + period should be omitted because it is supplied later (and sometimes it + will be replaced by a comma). + +\item[short] Optional. A short form. It could be a symbol, an + acronym, etc. depending on the nature of the glossary. + +\item[sort-word] Optional. If present, this field will be used to +sort the entries. It is useful in greek symbols and signs, for +example. + +\item[group] Optional. This field should consist in an uppercase + letter and is intended for entries not beginning (or not containing) + letters. Entries with the same |group| are gathered in the glossary + under a single heading and sorted in the whole glossary using this + letter, with entries without |group| placed as if they had a group + key of |L|. Using both |sort-word| and this field allows grouping, + say, greek symbols, numbers, signs and the like under seperate + headings. More on that later. + +\item[heading] Optional. It forces an entry to be listed under the + given heading. Useful in non-English languages when + letters with diacriticals are used (even with \bibTeX-8): +\begin{verbatim} +@gd{gnu, + word = "{\'A}nimo", + definition = "...", + heading = "A"} +\end{verbatim} +This field is uncompatible with |group|. + +\end{description} + +The |@gd| entry type is the only available currently in |glsplain|. +|@glossdef| is a synonymous. + +The default |crossref| field is available, but in glossaries is mostly +unpractical except in a few cases (for example, in a list of symbols +with the same greek letter with many meanings). + +\section{Basic commands} + +\begin{decl} +|\makegloss| +\end{decl} + +This command in the preamble tells \gloss{} to create a glossary. + +\begin{decl} +|\gloss{<key>}| +\end{decl} + +Similar to |\cite|. It writes a ``citation'' to the auxiliary file +|.gls.aux|. Sadly, this double extension is necessary because +\bibTeX{} requires the input file to be named with the |.aux| +extension. Below is explained how MS-DOS users can work around that. +Note that this file is not reread by the document, it just +provides information to \bibTeX\ of terms cited. + +\begin{decl} +|\printgloss{<databases>}| +\end{decl} + +Similar to |\bibliography|. It prints the glossary stored into the +|.gls.bbl| file generated by \bibTeX{} from |.gls.aux|. + +In this basic interface the \textsf{glsplain} style is used always. + +\section{The generated glossary} + +The steps to generate and use the glossary are: +\begin{itemize} +\item \LaTeX{} the document (let's call it |file.tex|), +\item \bibTeX\ the |.gls.aux| file (i.e., |bibtex file.gls|), +\item \LaTeX{} the document again, and +\item \LaTeX{} again if there are unresolved cross references. +\end{itemize} + +Once \LaTeX{}ed the document, and \bibTeX{}ed the |.gls.aux| file, +you will get the glossary in the |.gls.bbl| with the following \TeX{} +format: +\begin{itemize} + +\item the whole glossary is enclosed in the |thegloss| environment, + which just prints the sectioning heading whith the |\glossname| title; + +\item a series of |\glossheading|s (or |\glossgroup|s) commands + and |glossitem|s environments. Note that gloss items are not + commands but environments. The |glossitem*| environment means that + the definition of the entry ends with a period. + +\end{itemize} + +\section{The whole thing} + +Most of the formatting is done by the package and not by \bibTeX. The +\textsf{glsplain} style provides two forms, sometimes three, of +terms: the basic form as given in |word| to be used in the text, +and probably as headword, the second one is |word| with the first +letter uppercased to be used at the beginning of a sentence; and only +if |short| was included, a short form. + +Not surprisingly, the syntax of the \gloss{} commands is very +alike to that of bibliographies with some touches from that +of indexes. + +\subsection{Package options} + +\begin{decl} +|refpages| +\end{decl} + +The number of the first page where the term is referred to, is +appended to the gloss entry. + +\subsection{Multiple glossaries} + +\begin{decl} +|\makegloss|\\ +|\newgloss{<name>}{<suffix>}{<title>}{<style>}| +\end{decl} + +For defining a new glossary use |\newgloss|. The |\makegloss| +command is just a synonymous with +\begin{verbatim} +\newgloss{default}{.gls}{\glossname}{glsplain} +\end{verbatim} +Note that the suffix does include the dot. + +MS-DOS users must use |\newgloss| instead of |\makegloss|, and +a document name with at most seven letters. For instance: +\begin{verbatim} +\newgloss{default}{G}{\glossname}{glsplain} +\end{verbatim} +Note that, in this case, the suffix does not include the dot +(this way we avoid double extensions). + +\begin{decl} +|\printgloss[<name>]{<databases>}| +\end{decl} + +Prints the |<name>| glossary. By default, the |default| one +is printed. + +\subsection{The \texttt{\string\gloss} command} + +\begin{decl} +|\gloss[<options>]{<key>}| +\end{decl} + +Possible options are: +\begin{itemize} +\item |nocite| makes the command behave in the same fashion + as |\nocite|. For example, with |\gloss[nocite]{*}| all entries of + the databases are included in the glossary.\footnote{The command + |\string\onlygloss| is a deprecated synonymous with + |\string\gloss[nocite]|.} + +\item |refpage| tells \gloss{} to ignore previous references to pages. + Sometimes you say things like ``...at the end of the chapter, we will + introduce the concept of...''; when the concept is actually + introduced you should use this option. + +\item |<name>| of the glossary file where the key is written, + as defined by |\newgloss|. The key will be written into that + glossary. If there is no |<name>| it defaults to |default|. +\end{itemize} + +The following options control the format of the term in the text. + +\begin{itemize} + +\item |word| prints the term exactly as given in the |word| field. + +\item |Word| prints the term as given in the |word| field, but + with the first letter uppercased.\footnote{% + The command |\string\Gloss| is a deprecated synonymous with + |\string\gloss[Word]|.} + +\begin{verbatim} + ...discovered. \gloss[Word]{spectroscopy} became one of the most... +\end{verbatim} + +\item |short| prints the short form, provided the bib file defines it + (if not a warning is reported). + +\item |Long| prints a combination of |Word| and |short|: ``Word + (short)''. + +\item |long| prints a combination of |word| and |short|: ``word +(short)''. For example, the very first time an acronym is used: +\begin{verbatim} +...and the proposals made by the \gloss[long]{iupac} provide... +\end{verbatim} + Of course, you may want the following references to be in the short + form; just define +\begin{verbatim} +\newcommand{\acronym}[2][]{\gloss[short,#1]{#2}} +\end{verbatim} + +\end{itemize} The former (|nocite| and |refpage|) are built in, +|<name>|s are created by |\newgloss|, and the latter are created by +the package with |\setglosstext|; if no option defined by +|\setglosstext| is included, it defaults to |word|. + +\begin{decl} +|\setglosstext{<option-name>}{<format>}| \quad (3 parameters)\\ +|\ifglossshort{<format>}| \qquad |\ifglossshort*{<format>}| +\end{decl} + +|\setglosstext| sets how entries are printed in the main text by +|\gloss|, where |<option-name>| is the name to be used in the optional +argument of |\gloss|. There are five predefined formats, described +above, which you may redefine or complement with new defined ones. In +|<format>| there are three available arguments, which are defined +implicitly: +|#1| is |word|, |#2| is |word| with its initial uppercased, and |#3| +is the |short| field. Thus, the package does the following: +\begin{verbatim} +\setglosstext{word}{#1} +\setglosstext{Word}{#2} +\setglosstext{short}{\ifglossshort*{#3}{}} +\setglosstext{long}{#1\ifglossshort*{ (#3)}{}} +\setglosstext{Long}{#2\ifglossshort*{ (#3)}{}} +\end{verbatim} +Use is made of |\ifglossshort| which takes the first argument if the +short form exists, and the second one if does not exist. In the +latter case, that is done silently in the unstarred version, but with +an error in the starred one. + +\subsection{Glossary layout} + +\begin{decl} +|\glossheading{<format>}| +\end{decl} + +Sets how the headings are formatted; it is redefined with +|\renewcommand|. For example: +\begin{verbatim} +\renewcommand\glossheading[1]{% + \stopglosslist + \subsection*{#1}} +\end{verbatim} + +\begin{decl} +|\setglossgroup{<group>}{<heading>}| +\end{decl} + +Sets the heading corresponding to entries grouped by \textsf{glsplain} +under the same |group| key (and preceded by |\glossgroup|, which in +turn calls |\glossheading|). +\begin{verbatim} +\setglossgroup{C}{Signs} +\end{verbatim} + +\begin{decl} +|\setglosslabel{<format>}| \quad (3 parameters) +\end{decl} + +Sets which of the three forms are printed as label in the gloss items and +some other optional formatting. + +The package does: +\begin{verbatim} +\setglosslabel{\sffamily\bfseries#1\ifglossshort{ (#3)}{}} +\end{verbatim} + +\begin{decl} +|thegloss| +\end{decl} + +By default, the main environment just prints the gloss title. +You may change its definition. + +\begin{decl} +|glosslist|\\ +|\stopglosslist| +\end{decl} + +You usually won't see the |glosslist| environnment. It is automatically +started by |glossitem| if necessary. You may stop it with the +|\stopglosslist|. That's so done to interact with the format +of the heading for each letter group. The above example of +|\glossheading| uses it because sectioning commands cannot be +used inside lists; this way, the list is stopped, the title is +printed, and the following |glossitem| restarts the list. If +you say: +\begin{verbatim} +\renewcommand{\glossheading}[1]{} +\end{verbatim} +the whole glossary is printed in a single list (with no unwanted +space between letter groups). + +\textsf{Gloss} provides its own format for |glosslist| +(simply because the authors like it) with a |\glosshang| length +to adjust the left margin, but you may change its definition. + +\begin{decl} +|glossitem|\\ +|glossitem*| +\end{decl} + +Its |\begin| consists of an |\item| and some additional stuff. Its +|\end| adds a period (except in the starred version) or the page +number. You should not modify this environment, except if you want a +format not based in a list environment. + +Here is an example of how to modify the layout of the glossary: +\begin{verbatim} +\setglosslabel{#2} + +\renewcommand{\glossheading}[1]{% + \stopglosslist % -- Don't forget that! + \vspace{1pc}% + {\large\centering\bfseries#1\par}} + +\renewenvironment{glosslist} + {\begin{description}} + {\end{description}} +\end{verbatim} + +\begin{decl} +|\glosspage|\\ +|\xglosspage| +\end{decl} + +This command is used to print the page at the end of the gloss entry +with |refpages|. If the entry ends with a period, |\xglosspage| is +used, which by default just maps to |\glosspage|. You may redefine them +with |\renewcommand|: + +\begin{verbatim} +\renewcommand{\glosspage}[1]{. (See page~#1)} +\renewcommand{\xglosspage}[1]{ (See page~#1)} +\end{verbatim} + + +\section{Order of items} + +Now we explain how \bibTeX{} sorts and groups entries. Firstly, the +necessary values are assigned, if necessary. The |group| field is +used, as stated above, for entries consisting of non alphabetical +terms, and differents steps are followed depending on whether +this field exists or not. + +If |group| is not present, then +\begin{itemize} +\item |sort-word|, if omitted, is |word| lowercased with + non alphabetical signs removed. + +\item |heading|, if omitted, is the first letter in + |word|. +\end{itemize} +If |group| is present, then +\begin{itemize} +\item |sort-word|, if omitted, is |word| lowercased with + non alphabetical signs \textit{not} removed. + +\item |heading| is not used. +\end{itemize} + +Now, entries can be sorted. First, they are ordered by |group|, and +then, inside each group, by |sort-word|. In fields with |group| and +no |sort-word| the ASCII codes are used. No further sortening is +done. Finally, entries are grouped: first, consecutive entries with +the same |group| field; then, consecutive entries whose |group| is "L" +and with the same |heading| field. Note that |group| sorts and +groups, |sort-word| just sorts, and |heading| just groups. + +Now, let's answer the following simple question: When should I use +|heading| and |sort-word|? If the word begins with a letter with +diacritical mark alphabetized under the letter without diacritical +mark (a fairly frequent case), use heading, does not matter you are +using \bibTeX{} or \bibTeX 8: +\begin{verbatim} +@gd{ecole, + word = "{\'e}cole", + definition = "...", + heading = "E" +} +\end{verbatim} +(\texttt{\'ecole} and \texttt{{'e}cole} are allowed, too). + +If the word begins with a letter which is placed under a heading of +its own, use |sort-word| in \bibTeX{} and nothing in \bibTeX8 +(provided a correct sorting file is provided, which is not the case +for many languages): +\begin{verbatim} +@gd{nname, + word = "{\~n}ame", + definition = "...", + sort-word = "nzzame" +} +\end{verbatim} +in 7-bits versions. In 8-bits version, you may set |word| as +\texttt{\~name} and suppress the |sort-word| field. + +Anyway, if you are using a 7-bits version you may want using both fields: +\begin{verbatim} +@gd{innigo, + word = "{\'I}\~nigo", + definition = "...", + heading = "I", + sort-word = "Inzzigo" +} +\end{verbatim} + +Finaly, \textsf{gloss} provides inside the |thegloss| environment the +|\+zz+| command expanding to nothing, where |zz| is any text helping +in sorting entries (usualy |zz|); this way, |sort-field| is not +necessary in most of cases: +\begin{verbatim} +@gd{nname, + word = "{\~n\+zz+}ame", + definition = "..." +} +\end{verbatim} +An example in Swedish is |\+zzx+\r{a}|, in Czech +|{\v{c}\+zz+}|, and in Breton (8-bits) |\+n+\~n|. (Of course, +\bibTeX{} could translate from a readable form to one for +alphabetizing. That should be done in a future.) Using either +|sort-word| or |\+zz+| is a question of personal taste; One of us [JB] +uses |sort-word| while the other [JLDA] prefers +\bibTeX8. This syntax is not compliant with the \LaTeX\ interface +guidelines (use braces or brackets always) but it's short, which was +the main goal; this feature is mostly unsuportted, however. + +\section{Complements} + +\subsection{The \textsf{glsbase} database} + +This database defines some useful strings which can be used +in other databases. Currently, it only includes a set of +strings named |alphasort|, |betasort|, etc. to be used +in the |sort-word| field to provide the right order of +greek symbols. (They are defined as |"01"| , |"02"|, etc.) + +\subsection{The \textsf{glsshort} style} + +This style is provided for acronym lists. It sorts and creates +headings using the |short| filed. A new |sort-short| can be used +to fine tune the order of entries (this field will be ignored +in the \textsf{glsplain} style). However, note that the +printed form still follows the conventions given above, and +you should use the |short| specifier in |\cite|, and +|\setglosslabel|. + +\subsection{Compatibility with \textsf{hyperref}} + +If the \textsf{hyperref} package is loaded, links from the +word to the entry will be created. You can control +the appearance of gloss links with the following macros: +|\glosslinkborder|, |\glosslinkcolor|, +|\glosslinkbordercolor| (which correspond to |pdfborder|, +|linkcolor| and |linkbordercolor|); you can change +them with |\renewcommand|. + +\subsection{The sample file} + +Once installed \gloss{} you should be able to typeset the +|sample.tex| file, which will enlighten the usage +of this package --- \LaTeX{} to write the auxiliary file, \bibTeX{} +to create the glossary, \LaTeX{} to define the labels, and \LaTeX{} +to see the final result. Disclaimer: its text is in Spanish. + +\subsection{Backward uncompatibility} + +Version 0.1 beta had a different syntax for the |\gloss| +command. The old syntax |\gloss[<word>]{<key>}| does not work +and |<word>\gloss[nocite]{<key>}| should be used instead. The +|\glossstyle| command has been removed and its functionality +merged into |\newgloss|. + +\subsection{Language support} + +The following package options provide translation of the glossary +heading and page abbreviation: |basque|, |catalan|, |danish|, |dutch|, +|french|, |german|, |italian|, |portuguese| (and |brazilian|), +|russian| (any encoding), |polish|, |spanish| and |swedish|. +Translations to other languages are welcome. + +\end{document} + diff --git a/Master/texmf-dist/doc/latex/gloss/readme b/Master/texmf-dist/doc/latex/gloss/readme new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..b03b102e616 --- /dev/null +++ b/Master/texmf-dist/doc/latex/gloss/readme @@ -0,0 +1,30 @@ +Gloss 1.5.2 +~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Gloss is a package which allows the creation of glossaries +using bibTeX.
