Summary description: Command line application to convert .bib files to glossaries-extra.sty resource files
Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------
* Support for new features of mfirstuc v2.07:
- sentence case (firstuc) and title case now recognise MFUskippunc. (This should be used to skip leading punctuation.)
- title case now recognises MFUwordbreak.
* new dual field 'dualdescription'
* new selection option 'selected before'
* new resource options:
- save-from-alias - save-from-see - save-from-seealso - save-crossref-tail - save-definition-index - save-use-index - format-INT-fields - format-decimal-fields - secondary-match-action - secondary-match-op - secondary-match - secondary-not-match - encapsulate-sort - prefix-only-existing - save-principal-locations (synonym for save-primary-locations) - principal-location-formats (synonym for primary-location-formats)
* issue #10: explicit ranges with identical start and end should collapse to a normal location https://github.com/nlct/bib2gls/issues/10
This has led to new switches:
--collapse-same-location-range (default) --no-collapse-same-location-range
* issue #12 Primary locations need to be retained not merged (save-primary-locations=remove) https://github.com/nlct/bib2gls/issues/12
This has led to new switches:
--retain-formats --no-retain-formats
* bug fix: @entry missing required name/description results in null saved in the field value. This has been changed to an empty string (but the warning about the missing field remains).
* bug fix: selection=all doesn't show see and seealso lists in locations https://github.com/nlct/bib2gls/issues/9
* bug fix: INT sort method should cast to int https://github.com/nlct/bib2gls/issues/11
* bug fix: indexplural default name incorrect when parent field set https://github.com/nlct/bib2gls/issues/13 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
