+LaTeX Package : glossaries v 1.0
+
+Last Modified : 16 May 2007
+
+Author : Nicola Talbot
+
+This package is provided to assist generating glossaries.
+The package supports acronyms and multiple glossaries.
+New entries are defined to have a name and description (and
+optionally an associated symbol.) Plural forms can also be
+specified. New glossary styles can be defined, and preambles
+and postambles can be specified. There is provision for loading
+a database of terms, only terms used in the text will be added
+to the relevant glossary.
+
+*This package replaces the glossary package which is now obsolete.*
+
+The package is supplied using the TeX Directory Structure (TDS).
+Files in texmf directory should go in the corresponding
+$LOCALTEXMF directories. Files in texmf/bin should go in the
+relevant binary directory, which should be somewhere on your
+operating system's PATH.
+
+*Remember to refresh TeX's database*
+
+This package comes with a LaTeX2HTML style file glossaries.perl.
+This is located in latex2html/styles and should be placed in
+the relevant LaTeX2HTML styles directory, but note that
+glossaries.perl only supplies a sub-set of the commands provided
+by glossary.sty, so some commands may not be implemented, or
+may be implemented in a different way.
+
+The package and documentation source code is also supplied as a
+dtx and ins file located in texmf/source.
