i tried acronym environment in the acronym package
but is it possible to make the list of the acronyms sort out in alphabetical order automatically?
thanks

[spiegboy]

Maybe i didnt make my question very clear.
I want to create a list of acronyms in alphabetical order just as the nomenclature created by the nomenc package. THanks a lot

[Stefan Kottwitz]

At least the other package, glossaries, is able to sort alphabetically, it uses makeindex to achieve that, like nomencl does.

I see, i will try, but it seems very complicated with such a long documentation

[Stefan Kottwitz]

The glossaries package has a lot of features and is highly customizable. In my opinion this extensive documentation is really great, a lot better than just a short doc leaving questions open. The author provides even a FAQ. Perhaps have a look at the Quick Guide For The Impatient.
