     is used.

     generated label)

   * Added nonumberlist and numberedsection keys to \printglossary

   * Changed \glsnavigation so that it only lists the groups that

mfirstuc v1.02 (18 June 2008):

   * Fixed bug that transfered grouping, (e.g 
     \makefirstuc{\emph{abc}xyz} moved the xyz into the \emph)

   * If group following initial command is empty, \MakeUppercase
     is applied to the command, e.g. \makefirstuc{\ae{}bc} now
     produces \MakeUppercase\ae{}bc.

v1.13 :
   * Fixed bug in long4colheaderborder that puts an extra row
     at the end of the glossary.

   * Added Polish support (thanks to Piotr Formella for supplying
     the translations).

   * If babel is loaded and translator package is found on TeX's
     path, then the translator package will now be automatically 
     loaded.

mfirstuc v1.01 (13 May 2008):

   * Added \xmakefirstuc (expands argument before applying \makefirstuc)

   * Added package mfirstuc.sty which provides the command 
     \makefirstuc{<stuff>} which makes the first object of
     <stuff> uppercase unless <stuff> starts with a control
     sequence followed by a group, in which case the first
     object in the group is converted to uppercase. Examples:

     \makefirstuc{abc}        -> Abc
     \makefirstuc{\emph{abc}} -> \emph{Abc}
     \makefirstuc{{\'a}bc}    -> {\'A}bc
     \makefirstuc{\ae bc}     -> \AE bc
     \makefirstuc{{\ae}bc}    -> {\AE}bc

     (but don't do \makefirstuc{\ae{}bc} which produces \ae Bc.)

v1.11 (2 March 2008):
   * Fixed error in manual (glossary style is set using \glossarystyle
     not \setglossarystyle).

   * Changed the way the package is archived to make it compatible
