Multiple lists in one document #179

Closed SamThilmany closed 4 years ago

SamThilmany commented 4 years ago

Dear Clemens, first of all I would like to thank you for the great package and for the recent revision and enhancement. The acro package is used in many of my documents and I always enjoy the ease of use and great features.

However, while writing my Master's thesis I recently stumbled upon a feature that I could not implement myself. Maybe you consider it a good idea and implement it in a later version.

I would like to create several abbreviation lists. As a chemist there are a lot of abbreviations of chemicals in my work, which I want to put into a separate list to keep the list of "normal" abbreviations organized. However, this is not easy for me to implement, because I do not see any possibility to define multiple environments.

I am looking forward to your feedback.

Closing the issue as I wrote it before reading the full documentation. Shame on me!

This feature is already provided and is named tags. See section 10.3. Filter lists using tags if you're interested in the same behavior.
