The package supports generation of a glossary with makeindex. It has a certain amount of flexibility allowing the user to customize the format of the glossary and define new glossary-style objects so that you can have more than one type of glossary in your document.

The package is no longer supported; the author urges users to switch to use of its replacement, the glossaries package. Migration support is available, within the newer package.
