Description

GlossSee directs the reader to another GlossEntry instead of this one. A “See” cross-reference occurs in place of the definition.

Processing Expectations

Formatted as a displayed block, in the same style as a GlossDef.

GlossSee elements are expected to generate the necessary cross-reference text, usually ‘See’ in English, as well as any necessary punctuation.

[4.0] Future Changes

The InterfaceDefinition element will be discarded in DocBook V4.0. It will no longer be available in the content model of this element.

Parents

These elements contain glosssee: glossentry.

Attributes

otherterm

OtherTerm points to the GlossEntry being cross-referenced. (Go see that one.)
