FreeBSD Glossary Terms
|
||
Please keep this file sorted alphabetically/ASCIIly by glossterm.
|
||
|
||
glossterms that are acronyms should have two entries - one for
|
||
the expanded acronym and another for the acronym itself. The
|
||
second of these should reference the entry for the expanded acronym
|
||
via a glosssee element. For example:
|
||
|
||
<glossentry>
|
||
<glossterm>FUBAR</glossterm>
|
||
<glosssee otherterm="fubar-glossary">
|
||
</glossentry>
|
||
|
||
<glossentry id="fubar-glossary">
|
||
<glossterm>Fuc... Up Beyond All Recognition</glossterm>
|
||
<acronym>FUBAR</acronym>
|
||
<glossdef>
|
||
<para>Broken.</para>
|
||
</glossdef>
|
||
</glossentry>
|
||
|
||
Note that in this instance, the expanded acronym sorts below the
|
||
unexpanded acronym. That's OK.
|
||
|
||
Finally, id attribute values should end in the string
|
||
"-glossary" to avoid conflicting with id attribute values in
|
||
the main text.
