Package texlive-glossaries

http://tug.org/texlive/

The glossaries package supports acronyms and multiple glossaries, and has
provision for operation in several languages (using the facilities of either
babel or polyglossia). New entries are defined to have a name and description
(and optionally an associated symbol). Support for multiple languages is
offered, and plural forms of terms may be specified. An additional package,
glossaries-accsupp, can make use of the accsupp package mechanisms for
accessibility support for PDF files containing glossaries. The user may define
new glossary styles, and preambles and postambles can be specified. There is
provision for loading a database of terms, but only terms used in the text will
be added to the relevant glossary. The package uses an indexing program to
provide the actual glossary; either makeindex or xindy may serve this purpose,
and a Perl script is provided to serve as interface. This package requires the
mfirstuc package. The package supersedes the author's glossary package (which
is now obsolete).
