This is a problem google was unable to aid me with. I am writing an aiaa journal paper and need to generate a nomenclature. All templates and examples I have come accross do this manually, using a tabular.
My question is, is there any way to make the \printnomenclature
use a separator as in this example here?

With the standard setting of
nomencl
you have to decide yourself for the label width; here's a simple change for getting an equals sign.With the optional argument to
\printnomenclature
you can set the width to the widest label.With a bit more of effort, we can also make the setting of the widest label automatic:
The output is as in the second picture. Since we use the
aux
file, two runs of LaTeX may be necessary for synchronization.
