Text Formatting ⇒ How to make a nomenclature

[jaymarcos]

What is the easiest way to make a nomenclature list?

I'm having a hard time making a nomenclature list using \usepackage{nomencl}. I believe I have the idea on how to implement this package, but i always get this error.

Code: Select all

Hi,

in order to help you we need to see what you been doing, meaning a working minimal example and how you startet the makeindex-process. Please follow the link, if you don't know how to prepare an MWE.
Additionally, you might want to take a look at the glossaries-package.
