NAME
makeglossaries-lite - Calls makeindex/xindy for LaTeX documents using glossaries package
SYNOPSIS
makeglossaries [-o file] [-q] [-n]
[-s file] [-t file] [-L language] [-c] [-g]
[-l] [-p num] [-r] [-m file] [-x file]
[--version] [--help] basename
DESCRIPTION
makeglossaries-lite is cut-down Lua alternative to the
makeglossaries Perl script. It's designed for use with LaTeX documents that
use the glossaries package. Some options that are available to
makeglossaries aren't available with makeglossaries-lite.
The mandatory argument basename should
be the name of the LaTeX document without the .tex extension.
makeglossaries-lite will read the auxiliary file to determine whether
makeindex or xindy should be called. All the information
required to be passed to the relevant indexing application should
also be contained in the auxiliary file, but may be overridden by
the option arguments to makeglossaries-lite.

Quiet mode. Reduces chatter to standard output.
- -n

containing a single glossary, otherwise each glossary will be
