Glossary

Starts the glossary section which contains the definitions for all the terms that are marked with the <term> element.

Syntax. 

   <glossary>



   <dterm>first term

   definition of first term can continue

   over multiple lines or paragraphs



   <dterm>second term

   definition of second term ...



       .

       .

       .

"Glossary" is automatically used as the heading for the glossary section.

A <dterm> element identifies each term and its definition.

All terms marked with <term> without the nogloss parameter are required to be in the glossary. If the term is not in the glossary, omitted terms are listed in the filename.err file, which is created when you run HelpTag.

An end tag for <glossary> is not required.

Example.  Here is a simple glossary with two definitions:

   <glossary>



   <dterm>oxymoron

   A combination of contradictory words.



   <dterm>veritable

   Being in fact the thing named. Authentic.
