|
|
|
|
% List of acronyms included, based on PDR documentation package. Most of the abbreviations used in
|
|
% the PDR document package are included, as well as from ESO's Common Definition and Acronyms
|
|
% document (ESO-193178v6, 09-07-2013).
|
|
% There are several acronyms that have multiple meanings. Uncomment/Comment the one that you need.
|
|
% For an acronym inside another acronym, e.g. MICADO = Multi-AO ..., use
|
|
% \acro{MICADO}{Multi-\acs{AO} ...} and label the definition of AO using
