Automatic Nomenclature problem

Post by alihaider82 »

Hi:

I am writing AIAA conference paper. I am trying to build automatic nomenclature using TexnicCenter:

\usepackage{nomencl} % via makeindex
\makeglossary
\printglossary

In this case I get an Error : Undefined control sequence

Then I remove \printglossary, No error found.

I searched a lot on the Web, found the use of

\usepackage{nomencl} % via makeindex
\makenomenclature
\printnomenclature

It produces no results. NO nomenclture, No error.

Will anybody help me, how to print nomenclature automatically/

Best Regards
Ali

I think I've run into this problem before. Iirc the problem is that TeXnicCenter doesn't know how to do nomenclatures.

I think I solved it by running the makeindex command manually, e.g.
$> makeindex main.nlo -s nomencl.ist -o main.nls

and then you have to run latex again.

I know that this works in linux. I *think* it works from a dos box too.

Someone should write to the TeXnicCenter folks and tell them.

Have you ever tried emacs?
