\chapter{Sample}

This is a sample document that uses the dummy glossary entries
supplied with the glossaries bundle for testing.

Here are all the entries (including acronyms):

\forallglossaries{\thistype}{\section{Glossary `\thistype'}
\forglsentries[\thistype]{\thislabel}{\gls{\thislabel}. }}

\section{Acronyms Revisited}

Here are just the acronyms again:
\forallacronyms{\thistype}{\forglsentries[\thistype]{\thislabel}{\gls{\thislabel}. }}
