| The gatech-thesis package (available on CTAN) comes with a
gatech-thesis-losa.sty which is based on (and depends on) the gloss
package.
This provides a drop-in capability to generate a List of symbols and
acronyms at the front of one's thesis. The tweaks are there to ensure
the list is formatted according to GT's guidelines.
In the list, I would like to group my symbols and provide a subheading
for each group. From what I can tell, gloss supports this (sparse
documentation aside) but gatech-thesis-losa.sty explicitly disables it.
(an excerpt from the ...losa.sty file)
\newcommand\setlosagroup[1]{\@namedef{gl
s@group@#1}}
\newcommand{\losaheading}[1]{} % don't print subsection headings ("A",
"B", ...)
\newcommand{\losagroup}[1]{%
\expandafter\losaheading\csname gls@group@#1\endcsname}
Grouping works partially, the symbols are grouped together and sorted
as a group, but no group titles.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to use or modify the
....losa.sty to separate (and sublabel) groups of symbols in the
up-front list?
Thanks,
Rob
btw, I tried this...
\setlosagroup{acvars}{Aircraft Parameters}
\setlosagroup{stats}{Statistics Quantities}
\setlosagroup{errprop}{Error Propagation}
and this...
\setglossgroup{acvars}{Aircraft Parameters}
\setglossgroup{stats}{Statistics Quantities}
\setglossgroup{errprop}{Error Propagation}
Neither one worked.
