[OS X TeX] Re: Multiple Nomenclature sections and Memoir?

[Tim Lahey]

Thanks,

Unfortunately, multind isn't quite right since it's about indexes, not
glossaries/nomenclatures. After some digging, I found out that memoir
does support multiple glossaries, it's just not clear about that fact.
I need to find out how to properly use it, though. Especially since I
want the glossaries to be sections.

Cheers,

Tim.
