[Tugindia] \nomenclature in Texmaker?

[S. venkataraman]

I am not very familiar with texmaker.
You can carry out step 5 as follows:
You can
run it from the command prompt.
Click Start->run
type cmd.exe
change to the directory containing the file.
Run the command
<path to makeindex executable>\makeindex file.nlo -s nomencl.ist -o file.nls
Note: I am assuming that you are using miktex 2.7.  Check the name of the
executable file(.exe file) of the make index program and make sure it is
makeindex.exe
Hope this helps.
Regards,
S. Venkataraman
