The Position #1 Glossary (The "General Glossary")
    As you build your document assembly system, over time you will have several (perhaps many) subject oriented glossaries from which you can build documents. However, you will find that you will also be collecting/creating a substantial number of  generic terms and clauses that are important to retain but which are not directly associated with a particular subject. For example, the address to the Clerk of the Court (or client, or agency, etc.) does not 'belong' to the Contracts glossary more than it belongs to the Wills or Proposals glossaries. So, you need a glossary that is more 'general' in nature, one that can house those frequently used addresses, signature blocks, and other often called for 'boilerplate' or 'must have at my fingertips' clauses and terms. This describes what Pathagoras refers to as a 'general' glossary, and everybody needs one. The general glossary can be called anything, but we suggest you call it "General Glossary."  (Regardless of what name you choose, we will call the general glossary by that name.)

    Because of its generic nature, and because it contains terms that you frequently need throughout the day, the General Glossary should be in every library. Further, it should reside in the number one position in each of those libraries.  Why?  Because Pathagoras will look for a term sought via an <Alt-G> call in the following order: (1) from the glossary that matches the prefix (if a prefix is detected by Pathagoras); if not found then (2) from the book sitting on the first shelf of the active library.

    If you did not originally place the General Glossary on the first shelf, it is easy to place it there. Use the <Switch> button on the Document Assembly "Settings" screen to either switch the General Glossary with another glossary currently occupying that shelf, or to open up the slot for a 'direct shelving' of the glossary.
