Formatting a glossary like an index...?

Another question relative to the glossary publication both in PDF and WebHelp:
Is there an "easy" (or any kind of un-easy) way to get the same formatting as for the automatic index, for a glossary? Using the top alphabetic bar, and alphabetic sub-sections...?

Glossary List in BookMap

Hi, I would like to use a glossary (mainly for the abbreviated forms) in both my WebHelp and PDF output. I added a glossarylist to my backmatter in the bookmap, like this: <backmatter> <booklists> <indexlist/> <glossarylist> <topicref keys="COG" href="glossary/glossaryCOG.dita"/>...

Re: Batch search & replace

Fantastic!
I should really go further into XSLT and try to do it myself! I cloned your example repository, and will probably find some more very useful stuff in there! :)
Thanks you made my day.

Batch search & replace

Hi! Is there a way to make batch search and replace actions, based on a txt or other input file, on a complete DITA map hierarchy? I already found the powerful search/replace tool over a DITA hierarchy, but it can only do one search at a time, and I would have hundreds to do in my conversion process...
