Description

Howdy,

I'm using makeglossaries to create one glossary at a time. Unfortunately the makeglossaries script seems to be hard coded to expect exactly 3 character extensions.

The sampleacronyms.tex sample file defines a 4 character extension and 

makeglossaries sampleacronyms.acn2
fails.

Good Luck,
Herb Schulz
