Overview
A plugin to define acronyms in pages, posts and comments using <acronym> or <abbr> mark-up. Defined acronyms are underlined, and the definition appears as a tool-tip if the cursor is placed over the acronym. The list of acronyms is managed through an Admin interface.
This plugin is based on Chris Cox’s Acronyms-2, which was itself based on Joel Bennett’s Acronym Replacer plugin (http://www.huddledmasses.org/), ported to Nucleus CMS by Joel Pan as the NP_Acronym plugin and now ported back to WordPress.

Changelog
1.0
- First version, basically just the Acronyms-2 plugin with some convenient features added:
- A shortcode for adding a glossary page to your site
- Defined mark-up and an input box on the admin page for adding acronyms in bulk
- An export function that can be used in conjunction with the bulk import to transfer acronym collections from one site to another
- When adding an acronym that is already in your collection, the acronym definition textbox will be auto-filled with this previous definition so that you can decide if you want to overwrite it or append the new acronym definition
