Howto control the spacing between entries in the glossary?

Post by benowar »

Hi,

I am using the glossary command to build a glossary. That works great, however the resulting PDF does not add any space between entries of the glossary, except for when the first letter of the words change (thus, entries get grouped by their first letter). That makes it a bit hard to read for the reader, because its not easy to find out when the next entry is beginning.

Is there any way to change this, such as every entry will have a spacing of e.g. 2 lines (+ a bigger spacing when the first letter changes, to keep the "group by letter"-functionality).

Thanks,
Ben

Actually its as easy as adding \newline after the definition of a glossary entry.
