Glossary
I am fairly new to TEX and specially TexNicCeter. How would i go about creating a glossary? i have looked on the web and all solutions seem to involve the Command Line Prompt which i know nothing about. And if there is an easy way to create one glossary could i create multiple ones. So that i have all my theorems organized into one single glossary then all my definitions into a second and so on and so on.

Re: Glossary
I think spending 15 minutes understanding how the command prompt line works
and what you can do with that is really worth it.
not only for the glossary package, but also for other packages : bibunits, ot other packages using makeindex
The command line
= how you access it. in windows: Start, Run, where you type cmd
= how you access the directory containing your latex files. something like cd
for a complete list of commands: http://commandwindows.com/
= the basic latex (pdflatex) compiling commands
play a bit around, learn a few basic commands to automate your work
then, put everything together in a windows batch file.
