A Variable Glossary defines a set of variables that can be referenced inside expansion text and command parameters.
A Variable Glossary Entry consists in:
a variable name that uniquely identifies the variable,
a variable value that is to be used when the variable is referenced,
an optional display form, that is only displayed in the Glossary Viewer Entry Table.
Note that Variable Glossary Entries are never displayed in the Expansion Table, as they can only be referenced inside expansions.
A Variable Glossary does not accept duplicate variable names.
The Variable Glossary Shell is the Variable Glossary that contains all active variables: in order for a Variable Glossary to be active, it needs to be included in the Variable Glossary Shell.
The Variable Glossary Shell has a fixed location and a reserved name: Glossary\#Variables.xglo
You can view and edit the Variable Glossary Shell in the Glossary Viewer using the View Variable Glossary menu item of the Glossary Menu.
