Note: typesetting the document produces the .acn file and makeindex processes it to produce the .acr file which is then read in when typesetting again. Make sure you get the order right! If the `sub makeacn2acr' does the job you need then you need only duplicate the add_cus_dep line and substitute the extensions you are using leaving the sub call the same.

It contains the files that need to be changed as well as instructions for making the change, etc.

Then you need to define a `rule', i.e., zzz above, that tells latexmk exactly how to process xxx to get yyy. In latexmk the "add_cus_dep{'xxx', 'yyy', 0, 'zzz'};" command creates the `dependency' while the "sub zzz {...};" command creates the rule. The use of '$_[0]' in the rule is a general name for the root file name to be put in the command defined there. Notice that in the rule  you originally gave there is an '$_[0]'.ist for the style file name so there is a single style file that will be used; you could make a rule for each dependency that uses a special .ist file.

Those changes change the glossaries rules so they use the `makeglossaries` command, rather than the `makeindex` directly. You lose direct backward compatibility with the old glossary package but a supplied platexmkrc file for use with old projects that still use the glossary package is supplied too.

Howdy,

Enclosed is one of the sample files for the glossaries package along with a platexmkrc file that will fully compile the document including all the internal glossaries examples. Note: the platexmkrc file re-defines a couple `sub's to agree with the package I suggested you install so you won't need to install it for this case.

I'm not sure it does everything you want it to do but check it out.
