.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBmakeglossaries\fR is designed for use with LaTeX documents that
use the glossaries package. The mandatory argument \fIbasename\fR should
be the name of the LaTeX document without the .tex extension. 
\&\fBmakeglossaries\fR will read the auxiliary file to determine whether
\&\fBmakeindex\fR or \fBxindy\fR should be called. All the information
required to be passed to the relevant indexing application should
also be contained in the auxiliary file, but may be overridden by
the option arguments to \fBmakeglossaries\fR.
.SH OPTIONS
.IX Header "OPTIONS"
.IP \fB\-e\fR 4
.IX Item "-e"
Don't attempt to repair multiple encaps or illegal page number (\fBmakeindex\fR only).
.IP \fB\-c\fR 4
.IX Item "-c"
Compress intermediate blanks (\fBmakeindex\fR only).
.IP "\fB\-d\fR \fIaux dir\fR" 4
.IX Item "-d aux dir"
Specify the directory the .aux, .glo etc files are located.
Defaults to the parent directory of the base file \fIfilename\fR.

.IX Item "-g"
Employ German word ordering (\fBmakeindex\fR only).
.IP \fB\-k\fR 4
.IX Item "-k"
Don't try forking with piped redirection. (Lessens the
effect of \-q)
.IP \fB\-l\fR 4
.IX Item "-l"
Letter ordering.
.IP "\fB\-L\fR \fIlanguage\fR" 4
.IX Item "-L language"
This option only has an effect if \fBxindy\fR is called. Sets the
language. See \fBxindy\fR documentation for further details.
.IP "\fB\-m\fR \fIfile\fR" 4
.IX Item "-m file"
Specify the full path name for \fBmakeindex\fR to \fIfile\fR in the 
event that \fBmakeindex\fR isn't on the operating system's path.
.IP \fB\-n\fR 4
.IX Item "-n"
Print the commands that would normally be executed but don't run them.
.IP "\fB\-o\fR \fIfile\fR" 4
.IX Item "-o file"

containing a single glossary, otherwise each glossary will be
overridden.)

.IX Item "-p num"
Sets the starting page number to be \fInum\fR (\fBmakeindex\fR only).

.IX Item "-t file"
Use \fIfile\fR as the transcript file.
.Sp
Disable implicit page range formation (\fBmakeindex\fR only).
