% \section{Introduction}
%    When writing a paper on cellular mobile radio I started to use a
%    lot of acronyms. This can be very disturbing for the reader,
%    as he might not know all the used acronyms. To help the reader
%    I kept a list of all the acronyms at the end of my paper.
%
%    This package makes sure, that all acronyms used in the text are
%    spelled out in full at least once.
%
% \section{The user interface}
%    The package provides several commands and one environment
%    for dealing with acronyms. Their appearance can be controlled by
%    two package options and three macros.
%
% \subsection{Acronyms in the Text}
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\ac}
%    To enter an acronym inside the text, use the
%    \begin{quote}
%     |\ac[|\meta{linebreak penalty}|]{|\meta{acronym}|}|
%    \end{quote}
%    command. The first time you use an acronym, the full name of the
%    acronym along with the acronym in brackets will be printed. If you
%    specify the |footnote| option while loading the package, the full
%    name of the acronym is printed as a footnote.
%    The next time you access the acronym only the acronym will
%    be printed.
%
%    When an acronym is being used, for the first time (with the |footnote|
%    option not specified), next to the end of the line, a line break between
%    the full name of the acronym and the acronym in brackets can be
%    encountered. The optional variable represents the penalty level of
%    breaking the line at that place, taking integer values between 0 and 4.
%    A higher number corresponds to a higher penalty.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\Ac}
%    Works in the same way as \cmd{\ac}, but starts the long form with an
%    upper case letter. Use case: when the acronym is used for the first
%    time, at the beginning of a sentence.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\acresetall}
%    The 'memory' of the macro \cmd{\ac} can be flushed by calling the macro
%    \cmd{\acresetall}. Afterwards, \cmd{\ac} will print the full name of any
%    acronym and the acronym in brackets the next time it is used.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\acf}
%    If later in the text again the Full Name of the acronym should be
%    printed, use the command
%    \begin{quote}
%     |\acf[|\meta{linebreak penalty}|]{|\meta{acronym}|}|
%    \end{quote}
%    to access the acronym. It stands for ``full acronym'' and it
%    always prints the full name and the acronym in brackets.
%
%    When an full acronym is being used next to the end of the line, a line
%    break between the full name of the acronym and the acronym in brackets
%    can be encountered. The optional variable represents the penalty level
%    of breaking the line at that place, taking integer values between 0
%    and 4. A higher number corresponds to a higher penalty.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\Acf}
%    Works in the same way as \cmd{\acf}, but starts the long form with an
%    upper case letter.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\acs}
%    To get the short version of the acronym, use the command
%    \begin{quote}
%     |\acs{|\meta{acronym}|}|
%    \end{quote}
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\acl}
%    Gives you the expanded acronym without even mentioning the
%    acronym.
%    \begin{quote}
%     |\acl{|\meta{acronym}|}|
%    \end{quote}
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\Acl}
%    Works in the same way as \cmd{\acl}, but starts with an upper case
%    letter.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\acp}
%    Works in the same way as \cmd{\ac}, but makes the short and/or
%    long forms into plurals.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\Acp}
%    Works in the same way as \cmd{\acp}, but starts the long form with an
%    upper case letter.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\acfp}
%    Works in the same way as \cmd{\acf}, but makes the short and
%    long forms into plurals.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\Acfp}
%    Works in the same way as \cmd{\acfp}, but starts the long form with an
%    upper case letter.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\acsp}
%    Works in the same way as \cmd{\acs}, but makes the short
%    form into a plural. 
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\aclp}
%    Works in the same way as \cmd{\acl}, but makes the long form
%    into a plural.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\Aclp}
%    Works in the same way as \cmd{\aclp}, but starts with an upper case
%    letter.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\acfi}
%    Works in the same way as \cmd{\acf}, but prints the Full Name acronym
%    (\cmd{\acl}) in italics and the abbreviated form (\cmd{\acs}) in
%    upshaped form.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\Acfi}
%    Works in the same way as \cmd{\acfi}, but starts the long form with an
%    upper case letter.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\acused}
%    Marks an acronym as used, as if it had been called with \cmd{\ac},
%    but without printing anything. This means that in the future only the
%    short form of the acronym will be printed.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\acsu}
%    Prints the short form of the acronym and marks it as used.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\aclu}
%    Prints the long form of the acronym and marks it as used.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\Aclu}
%    Works in the same way as \cmd{\aclu}, but starts with an upper case
%    letter.
%
%    Example: |\acl{lox}/\acl{lh2} (\acsu{lox}/\acsu{lh2})|
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\iac}
%    Works in the same way as the \cmd{\ac} command but prefixes it with 
%    an appropriate indefinite article.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\Iac}
%    Works in the same way as the \cmd{\ac} command but prefixes it with 
%    an appropriate upper case indefinite article.
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\...*}
%    The following commands do the same as their unstarred forms, except
%    that the acronym will not be marked as used.  If you work with the 'onlyused'
%    option then macros which have only been used with starred commands will
%    not show up.\\
%    \cmd{\ac*}, \cmd{\Ac*}, \cmd{\acs*}, \cmd{\acl*}, \cmd{\Acl*}, \cmd{\acf*},
%    \cmd{\Acf*}, \cmd{\acp*}, \cmd{\Acp*}, \cmd{\acsp*}, \cmd{\aclp*}, \cmd{\Aclp*},
%    \cmd{\acfp*}, \cmd{\Acfp*}, \cmd{\acfi*}, \cmd{\Acfi*}, \cmd{\acsu*},
%    \cmd{\aclu*}, \cmd{\Aclu*}, \cmd{\iac*} and \cmd{\Iac*}.
%
% \subsection{Customization}
%
%    The appearance of \cmd{\acs} and \cmd{\acf} can be configured
%    in various ways. Of main importance are the package options:
%    \begin{description}
%      \item[\normalfont|footnote|]
%         makes the full name of the acronym appear as a footnote.
%      \item[\normalfont|smaller|]
%         lets the acronyms appear a bit smaller than the surrounding
%         text. This is in accord with typographic convention.
%         The |relsize| package is required.
%    \end{description}
%
%    There are three lower-level macros controlling the output.
%    Any acronym printed by \cmd{\acs} is formatted
%    by \DescribeMacro{\acsfont}\cmd{\acsfont}. Similarly, unless the
%    option |footnote| is specified, \DescribeMacro{\acffont}\cmd{\acffont}
%    handles the output of \cmd{\acf}, where the included acronym
%    goes through \DescribeMacro{\acfsfont}\cmd{\acfsfont} (and
%    \cmd{\acsfont}).
%    The plural and upper case forms are treated accordingly. Usually the
%    three macros do nothing. To give an example, the option |smaller|
%    makes \cmd{\acsfont} use the command \cmd{\textsmaller} from the
%    |relsize| package:
%    \begin{quote}
%      |\renewcommand*{\acsfont}[1]{\textsmaller{#1}}|
%    \end{quote}
%
% \subsection{Defining Acronyms}
%    Acronyms can either defined from an environment specifically
%    introduced for that purpose or by direct definitions.
%
%    \DescribeEnv{acronym}
%    The |acronym| environment allows one to define all the acronyms
%    needed by a document at a single place and is self-documenting,
%    since a table of acronyms is automatically produced.
%
%    In the |acronym| environment, acronyms are defined with the
%    \DescribeMacro{\acro} command:
%    \begin{quote}
%      |\acro{|\meta{acronym}|}[|\meta{short name}|]{|\meta{full name}|}|
%    \end{quote}
%    The first argument \meta{acronym} is the acronym string itself
%    and is used in the commands of the previous section such as
%    \cmd{\ac} or \cmd{\acl}, that print the different forms of the
%    acronym.
%
%    Because internal commands take \meta{acronym} for storing
%    the different forms of the acronym, the \TeX\ code for the
%    acronym is limited by \cmd{\csname}.
%    If the acronym requires problematic or complicate \TeX\ stuff
%    (font commands, \dots), then this code
%    can be given in the optional argument \meta{short name}.
%    The first argument \meta{acronym} is then a simpler string
%    to identify the acronym.
%    For example, an acronym for water can look like this:
%    \begin{quote}
%      |\acro{H2O}[$\mathrm{H_2O}$]{water}|
%    \end{quote}
%    Then |\acs{H2O}| gets ``$\mathrm{H_2O}$'' and
%    |\acl{H2O}| prints ``water''.
%%
%    Inside the |acronym| environment \DescribeMacro{\acroextra}
%    additional information can be added to the list of acronyms
%    with the \cmd{\acroextra} command that will not be included
%    in the normal inline acronyms.
%
%    \begin{quote}
%      |\acroextra{|\meta{additional info}|}|
%    \end{quote}
%
%    \noindent
%    for example:
%
%    \begin{quote}
%    |\acro{H2O}[$\mathrm{H_2O}$]|\\
%    |     {Dihydrogen Monoxide\acroextra{ (water)}}|\\[1ex]
%    |\acro{NA}[\ensuremath{N_{\mathrm A}}]|\\
%    |     {Number of Avogadro\acroextra{ (See \S\protect\ref{A1})}}|
%    \end{quote}
%
%    \noindent
%    Note that \cmd{\acroextra} must be inserted inside the
%    \cmd{\acro} definition and that fragile commands must be
%    protected. Be careful of unnecessary spaces.
%
%    The standard format of the acronym list is a \cmd{\description}
%    environment. If you pass an optional parameter to the |acronym|
%    environment, the width of the acronym-column will be fitted to the
%    width of the given parameter (which should be the longest acronym).
%    For example, if \textit{HBCI} is the longest acronym used, the
%    list should start with
%    \begin{quote}
%    |\begin{acronym}[HBCI]|
%    \end{quote}
%
%    \DescribeMacro{\aclabelfont}
%    The short form of each acronym in the list is formatted using
%    \cmd{\aclabelfont}, which typesets its arguments in bold font by
%    default. It can be redefined to produce bold sans-serif labels, for
%    example, with
%    \begin{quote}
%      |\renewcommand*{\aclabelfont}[1]{\textbf{\textsf{\acsfont{#1}}}}|
%    \end{quote}
%
%    In standard mode, the acronym-list will consist of all defined
%    acronyms, regardless if the the acronym was used in the text
%    before or not. This behavior can be changed by loading the
%    package with the parameter \texttt{printonlyused} (used at least once) or
%    \texttt{printonlyreused} (use more than once):
%    \begin{quote}
%    |\usepackage[printonlyused]{acronym}|
%    \end{quote}
%    In \texttt{printonly(re)used}-mode you can add to each acronym the
%    the page number where it was first used by additionally specifying
%    the option \texttt{withpage}.
%    \begin{quote}
%    |\usepackage[printonlyused,withpage]{acronym}|
%    \end{quote}
%
%    If one does not want an acronym list to be produced at all,
%    acronyms can be defined directly thanks to the two commands
%    \DescribeMacro{\newacro}%
%    \DescribeMacro{\acrodef}%
%    \begin{quote}
%      |\newacro{|\meta{acronym}|}[|\meta{short name}|]{|\meta{full name}|}|\\
%      |\acrodef{|\meta{acronym}|}[|\meta{short name}|]{|\meta{full name}|}|
%    \end{quote}
%    \noindent the difference between the two consisting in the fact
%    that the latter makes the acronym definition stored in the |.aux|
%    file. Therefore, the acronym becomes available from start-up in
%    the next run.
%    
%    Note that all the acronym definitions made by \cmd{\acro} in the
%    |acronym| environment are also similarly added to the |.aux|
%    file.
%
%    \subsubsection{Non standard indefinite articles}
%
%    Sometimes the indefinite article of an acronym differs between its
%    short form and its long form, for example ``a Federal Bureau of 
%    Investigation (FBI) agent'' and ``an FBI agent''. To deal with this, 
%    the package provides the following three commands
%    \DescribeMacro{\newacroindefinite}
%    \DescribeMacro{\acrodefindefinite}
%    \DescribeMacro{\acroindefinite}
%    \begin{quote}
%      |\acroindefinite{|\meta{acronym}|}{|\meta{short indefinite article}|}{|%
%      \meta{long indefinite article}|}|\\
%      |\newacroindefinite{|\meta{acronym}|}{|\meta{short indefinite article}|}{|%
%      \meta{long indefinite article}|}|\\
%      |\acrodefindefinite{|\meta{acronym}|}{|\meta{short indefinite article}|}{|%
%      \meta{long indefinite article}|}|\\
%    \end{quote}
%    \noindent that allow one to define indefinite articles. The \cmd{\acroindefinite}
%    command is meant to be used in the |acronym| environment.  The
%    difference among the latter two is that \cmd{\acrodefindefinite} puts
%    the acronym definition in the |.aux| file, so that the acronym
%    exception is available at the next run from start-up.
%
%    When using \cmd{\iac} and \cmd{\Iac} without first defining an 
%    article, the default article is ``a''.
%
%    \subsubsection{Non standard and foreign plural forms}
%
%    When the plural form of an acronym is required, the package
%    typically obtains it as an English plural, by adding an `s'. This
%    happens both for long and short forms.  For instance, for an
%    acronym defined as
%    \begin{quote}
%      |\newacro{IC}{Integrated Circuit}|
%    \end{quote}
%    \noindent the |\acsp{IC}| command produces ``ICs'', and the
%    |\aclp{IC}| command produces ``Integrated Circuits''.
%
%    Unfortunately, this is generally not suitable for typesetting in
%    languages different from English, and at times it is not correct
%    even for English.  For instance consider the ``MP'' acronym,
%    commonly used to refer to a ``Member of the Parlament''. Of
%    course, its long form plural is not ``Member of the Parlaments'',
%    but ``Members of the Parlament''. For the short form plural,
%    ``MPs'' is anyway commonly accepted. The same happens with ``SOC
%    (System on a Chip)'' or ``BUT (Block Under Test)''.
%
%    In foreign languages, things can be even more complicated. For
%    instance, in Italian, there are different rules for English
%    acronyms used in Italian text and Italian acronyms used in
%    Italian text. The former do not get a plural at all, neither for
%    the long, nor for the short form as in ``Un paio di
%    \emph{Integrated Circuit (IC)}''. The latter get a plural long
%    form following the natural Italian rules for plurals, and a
%    plural short form that can either be the same as the singular
%    short form, or --- at times --- a form obtained by doubling those
%    letter of the short form that correspond to words that get a
%    plural in the long form. For instance: ``Nucleo Investigativo
%    (NI)'' could take a plural as in ``Nuclei Investigativi (NNII)'',
%    although in modern texts one is more likely to find ``Nuclei
%    Investigativi (NI)''.
%
%    To deal with all these different situations, the package (since
%    version 1.35) has been enriched with the following three commands
%    \DescribeMacro{\acroplural}
%    \DescribeMacro{\newacroplural}
%    \DescribeMacro{\acrodefplural}
%    \begin{quote}
%      |\acroplural{|\meta{acronym}|}[|\meta{short plural}|]{|%
%      \meta{long plural}|}|\\
%      |\newacroplural{|\meta{acronym}|}[|\meta{short plural}|]{|%
%      \meta{long plural}|}|\\
%      |\acrodefplural{|\meta{acronym}|}[|\meta{short plural}|]{|%
%      \meta{long plural}|}|\\
%    \end{quote}
%    \noindent that allow one to define plural exceptions. The \cmd{\acroplural}
%    command is meant to be used in the |acronym| environment.  The
%    difference among the latter two is that \cmd{\acrodefplural} puts
%    the acronym definition in the |.aux| file, so that the acronym
%    exception is available at the next run from start-up. When the
%    optional short form is not provided, the acronym name plus an `s'
%    is used.
% 
%    Plural exceptions are never reported in tables of acronyms.
%
%
%  \subsection{Miscellaneous}
%    \subsubsection{Sectioning and pdf marks}
%    Acronyms are robust (since version 1.12) and can be used in
%    sectional headers such as \cmd{\chapter}, \cmd{\section}, etc.,
%    but please note the following:
%    \begin{itemize}
%       \item  Do not use the general form (\cmd{\ac} or \cmd{\acp}) in
%              sectional headers, because it will uses the full name the first time,
%              that is in the table of contents, and the short form further on.
%
%       \item  The text of \meta{acronym} is used verbatim in bookmarks and
%              not \meta{short name} for pdf\TeX\ with \texttt{hyperref}.
%
%       \item  When the long form of the acronym is used in sectional headers
%             (for pdf\TeX\ with \texttt{hyperref}), it will end up in the pdf
%             bookmarks. In that case it is good to hide unusual text such as
%             math inside the \cmd{\texorpdfstring} defined by \texttt{hyperref},
%             for example:
%             \begin{quote}
%                |\acro{Nx}[\ensuremath{N_{\chi}}]|\\
%                |     {\texorpdfstring{$\chi$}{X}-factor}|
%             \end{quote}
%             which will then give
%             \begin{quote}\begin{tabbing}
%                pdf bookmark:\quad\=|\acf{Nx}| $\rightarrow$ \textsf{X-factor (Nx)}\\
%                text:             \>|\acf{Nx}| $\rightarrow$ $\chi$-factor~($N_{\chi}$)
%             \end{tabbing}\end{quote}
%
%      \item  For acronyms in sectional headers, the file must be \textsc{pdf}\LaTeX'ed
%             3 times before the bookmarks are correct.
%
%
%      \item  Acronyms in sectional headers together with the |footnote| option
%             will not give reliable results, because it will end up in the running
%             heads and table of contents. If you really need it, use the optional
%             argument of the sectioning commands. For example:
%             \begin{quote}
%                |\chapter[The water \texorpdfstring{$\mathrm{H_2O}$}{H2O}) ...]|\\
%                |        {The \acf{H2O} ...}|
%             \end{quote}
%    \end{itemize}

\section{Intro}
In the early nineties, \acs{GSM} was deployed in many European
countries. \ac{GSM} offered for the first time international
roaming for mobile subscribers. The \acs{GSM}'s use of \ac{TDMA} as
its communication standard was debated at length. And every now
and then there are big discussion whether \ac{CDMA} should have
been chosen over \ac{TDMA}.

\section{Furthermore}
\acresetall
The reader could have forgotten all the nice acronyms, so we repeat the
meaning again.

If you want to know more about \acf{GSM}, \acf{TDMA}, \acf{CDMA}
and other acronyms, just read a book about mobile communication. Just
to mention it: There is another \ac{UA}, just for testing purposes!

\subsection{Some chemistry and physics}
\label{Chem}
\ac{NAD+} is a major electron acceptor in the oxidation
of fuel molecules. The reactive part of \ac{NAD+} is its nictinamide
ring, a pyridine derivate.

One mol consists of \acs{NA} atoms or molecules. There is a relation
between the constant of Boltzmann and the \acl{NA}:
\begin{equation}
  k = R/\acs{NA}
\end{equation}

\acl{lox}/\acl{lh2} (\acsu{lox}/\acsu{lh2})

\Acp{LFVP} are processes in which the lepton number of the initial
and final states are different. An example for \iac{LFVP} is
neutrinoless double beta decay.

\subsection{Some testing fundamentals}
When testing \acp{IC}, one typically wants to identify functional
blocks to be tested separately. The latter are commonly indicated as
\acp{BUT}. To test a \ac{BUT} requires defining a testing strategy\dots{}
\Iac{IC} popped up unexpectedly.

%
%
% \subsection{Options}
%
%    \begin{macro}{\ifAC@footnote}
%    The option |footnote| leads to a redefinition of \cmd{\acf},
%    \cmd{\Acf}, \cmd{\acfp}, and \cmd{\Acfp}, making the full name appear
%    as a footnote.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\newif\ifAC@footnote

%    \end{macrocode}
%    \begin{macrocode}

%    \end{macrocode}
%    \end{macro}
%
%    \begin{macro}{\ifAC@nohyperlinks}
%    If hyperref is loaded, all acronyms will link to their glossary entry.
%    With the option |nohyperlinks| these links can be suppressed.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\newif\ifAC@nohyperlinks

%    \begin{macrocode}
\DeclareOption{nohyperlinks}{\AC@nohyperlinkstrue}
%    \end{macrocode}
%    \end{macro}
%
%    \begin{macro}{\ifAC@noacroprefix}
%    With the |noacroprefix| option the acronym commands are not prefixed. This
%    reproduces the old behavior of version <1.43, but can cause collisions
%    between user-defined acronyms and commands of this package.
%    \begin{macrocode}

%
%    \begin{macro}{\ifAC@smaller}
%    The option |smaller| leads to a redefinition of \cmd{\acsfont}.
%    We want to make the acronym appear smaller. Since this should
%    be done in a context-sensitive way, we rely on the macro
%    \cmd{\textsmaller} provided by the |relsize| package.
%    As \cmd{\RequirePackage} cannot be used inside

%    \end{macrocode}
%    \end{macro}
%
%    \begin{macro}{\ifAC@dua}
%    The option |dua| stands for ``don't use acronyms''.
%    It leads to a redefinition of \cmd{\ac}, \cmd{\Ac}, \cmd{\acp},
%    and \cmd{\Acp}, making the full name appear all the time
%    and suppressing all acronyms but the explicity requested by
%    \cmd{\acf}, \cmd{\Acf}, \cmd{\acfp} or \cmd{\Acfp}.

%
%    \begin{macro}{\acsfont}
%    \begin{macro}{\acffont}
%    \begin{macro}{\acfsfont}
%    The appearance of the output of the commands \cmd{\acs} and
%    \cmd{\acf} is partially controlled by \cmd{\acsfont},
%    \cmd{\acffont}, and \cmd{\acfsfont}. By default, they do nothing
%    except when the |smaller| option is loaded.

%    The option |smaller| leads to a redefinition of \cmd{\acsfont}.

%
%    \begin{macro}{\AC@linebreakpenalty}
%    When the option |nolinebreak| is specified, the default penalty for a line break
%    is being set to the maximum. Otherwise, the default penalty is one level below
%    the maximum, meaning that most of the times, by default, the line will not get
%    broken.

% \subsection{Defining acronyms}
%
%    There are three commands that define acronyms:
%    \cmd{\newacro}, \cmd{\acrodef}, and \cmd{\acro}.
%    They are called with the following arguments:
%    \begin{quote}
%       |\acro{|\meta{acronym}|}[|\meta{short name}^^A
%         |]{|\meta{full name}|}|
%    \end{quote}
%    The mechanism used in this package is to make the
%    optional \meta{short name} identical to the \meta{acronym} when it
%    is empty (no optional argument), thereby only the second (optional) argument
%    is stored together with the \meta{full name}.
%
%    \begin{macro}{\newacro}
%    \begin{macro}{\AC@newacro}
%    The internal macro \cmd{\newacro} stores the
%    \meta{short name} and the \meta{full name} in the
%    command \fnacro.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\newcommand*\newacro[1]{%

%
%    \begin{macro}{\acrodef}
%    \begin{macro}{\AC@acrodef}
%    The user command \cmd{\acrodef} calls \cmd{\newacro} and
