Nicola Talbot submitted an update to the

glossaries

package.

Version number: 4.0 License type: lppl

Summary description: Create glossaries and lists of acronyms

Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------

Major update.

glossaries.sty has changed the way information is written to external glossary files. This means that descriptions can span multiple paragraphs without exceeding makeindex's buffer. It also reduces the amount of escaping of xindy/makeindex special characters and obviates the need for sanitizing of the name, description and symbol keys. The new version should work with documents created with older versions, but you may get deprecated warnings.

New package glossaries-prefix.sty added to the bundle.

See CHANGES file for full list of updates.
