       Converts a .tex file containing glossary definitions using commands like "\newglossaryentry" and
       "\newacronym" to a .bib file in the format required for bib2gls.  Distributed with bib2gls.

GENERALOPTIONS--help or -h
           Display help message and exit.

       --version or -v
           Display version information and exit.

       --silent or --quiet or -q
           Suppress all messages except for errors.

       --verbose
           Switch on verbose mode.

       --no-verbose
           Switch off verbose mode.

       --debug [n]
           Display debugging messages.

       --debug-modesetting
           May be used instead of --debug where the level number is difficult to remember. Value same as for
           bib2gls's --debug-mode option.

       --no-debug
           Switch off debugging mode. Equivalent to --debug0.

       --log-filefilename
           Log messages to given file. Intended primarily for debugging messages so enabling debug mode will
           automatically create a transcript file, but otherwise a file won't be created unless this option is
           used.

   ENCOSINGANDLOCALISATIONOPTIONS--texencname
           Set the character encoding to name for the input .tex files.

       --bibencname
           Set the character encoding to name for the output .bib files.

       --localelangtag
           Use the language resource files associated with the given language tag langtag. If there isn't an
           appropriate file, the en (English) file will be used.

   FILTERINGOPTIONS--preamble-only or -p
           Only parse the document preamble. That is, stop parsing if "\begin{document}" encountered.

       --no-preamble-only
           Parse the entire document (default).

       --ignore-fieldslist or -flist
           Ignore all the fields in the comma-separated list. If the list includes sort, type or category it
           will automatically implement the corresponding --ignore-sort, --ignore-type or --ignore-category
           option. Each item in the list should identify the field by its original case-sensitive key.

           This option is cumulative.

       --no-ignore-fields
           Cancels the effect of --ignore-fields.

       --ignore-category
           Omit the category field. Default if --split-on-category.

       --no-ignore-category
           Don't omit the category field. Default unless --split-on-category.

       --ignore-type
           Omit the type field. Default if --split-on-type.

       --no-ignore-type
           Don't omit the type field. Default unless --split-on-type.

       --ignore-sort
           Ignore the sort field (default).

       --no-ignore-sort
           Don't ignore the sort field.

   OUTPUTFILEOPTIONS--overwrite
           Overwrite existing .bib files. Default unless --split-on-type used.

       --no-overwrite
           Don't overwrite existing .bib files. Default if --split-on-type used.

       --split-on-type or -t
           Split the entries into separate files according to the type field.  This option automatically
           implements --ignore-type and --no-overwrite.

       --no-split-on-type
           Don't split the entries into separate files according to the type field (default).

       --split-on-category or -c
           Split the entries into separate files according to the category field.  This option automatically
           implements --ignore-category and --no-overwrite.

       --no-split-on-category
           Don't split the entries into separate files according to the category field (default).

   ADJUSTMENTOPTIONS--absorb-see
           Absorb "\glssee" and "\glsxtrindexseealso" into the data (default).

       --no-absorb-see
           Don't absorb "\glssee" and "\glsxtrindexseealso" into the data.

       --index-conversion or -i
           Any entries that would normally be converted to @entry that don't have a description or just have the
           description set to "\nopostdesc" or "\glsxtrnopostpunc" will be converted to @index and the
           description field will be omitted.

       --no-index-conversion
           Don't use @index instead of @entry if the description is empty or just "\nopostdesc" or
           "\glsxtrnopostpunc" (default).

       --space-subvalue or -svalue
           Substitute spaces in labels with value.

       --field-mapmappings or -mmappings
           Add source key to destination field label mapping. The argument should be a comma-separated list of
           src-field=dest-field pairs. This option is cumulative.

           The deprecated --key-map is a synonym of --field-map.

       --no-field-map
           Cancels all mappings applied with --field-map.  The deprecated --no-key-map is a synonym of
           --field-map.

       --internal-field-mapmappings
           Adds the given mappings to the default set of internal field to key mappings.  (For example, desc is
           the internal field label of the description key.) This option is cumulative.

           This option is only needed if the internal field label is supplied in the argument of command such as
           "\glssetnoexpandfield".
