<P> Marks a glossary entry. In L<SUP><SMALL>A</SMALL></SUP>T<SMALL>E</SMALL>X, this is a synonym for an itemitem with an optional argument, within a descriptiondescription environment, and the argument is added to the index.

<P> In Windows Help, this is identical to a section*sectionX in a report.

<P> If labels are associated with the glossary entries, they can be referenced by helprefhelpref or poprefpopref jumps. A glossary entry is currently the only type of destination that popref may refer to.

<P> This is an example of making a glossary in a report:

<P> <PRE>
\begin{helpglossary}
\par
\gloss{API}
\par
Application Programmer's Interface - ...
...vides an abstraction of DDE under both Windows and UNIX.
\par
\end{helpglossary}
</PRE>
