title: Latex: index of symbols
body: <p>I want to create an index of symbols or notation, similar to the usual index one obtains with makeindex. I have gotten this to work, using the glossaries package. However, just as in the usual index, I would like to get two columns in the index of symbols, while glossaries puts everything under each other.
  Commands like twocolumn or multicol also do not work, because then the second column starts higher than the first, above the title of the index of symbols.</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions?</p>
