General ⇒ nomenclature not appearing in PDF

[Colin93]

Hi everyone !

I can't get an output for my nomenclature. COuld you help me ?

I'm using \documentclass{report}

My script for the nomenclature part is :

Code: Select all

\usepackage{amsmath,amsfonts,amsthm,amssymb} 
\usepackage{nomencl}

\begin{document} 

\makenomenclature

\renewcommand{\nomname}{List of Symbols}

\mbox{} 
\nomenclature{$c$}{Speed of light in a vacuum inertial frame}
\nomenclature{$h$}{Planck constant}
\printnomenclature

\end{document}

You need to run an extra tool, just like when you are creating a bibliography. The exact command is written out on the bottom of page two of the nomencl manual.

I will try. Thankyou again !

Do I write makeindex <filename> hfilenamei.nlo -s nomencl.ist -ohfilenamei <filename>.nls on a terminal ?
I've never used the bibliography commands so I don't really understand...

[cgnieder]

Yes, you need to run this on the command line/terminal. Suppose your file is named test.tex then you need to run

Code: Select all

makeindex test.nlo -s nomencl.ist -o test.nls

every time you change the the nomenclature. I'd run this a last time when the document is finished (and then compile the file once or twice again).
