\begin{document}

This is a sample document that uses entry counting per unit. The unit entry counting
has been enabled on the \texttt{abbreviation} category.
The unit has been set to
``\glsgetcategoryattribute{abbreviation}{unitcount}''.
This means that abbreviations will only be added to the glossary if
they are used more than $n$ times per 
\glsgetcategoryattribute{abbreviation}{unitcount},
where in this document $n$ has been set to
\glsgetcategoryattribute{abbreviation}{entrycount}.
Entries in other categories behave as normal.

\chapter{Sample}

\lastruncount{xml}

Used once: \gls{html}.

Used twice: \gls{xml} and \gls{xml}.

Used three times: \gls{css} and \gls{css} and \gls{css}.

Used once but this entry is in the ``general'' category
which doesn't have the entry unit counting set:
\gls{sample}.

\currentruncount{xml}

\triggertest{xml}

\currentruncount{css}

\triggertest{css}

\chapter{Another Sample}

Used once in this chapter: \gls{xml}.

Used twice in this chapter: \gls{css} and \gls{css}.

\currentruncount{css}

\triggertest{css}

Total number of times the \texttt{css} entry was used 
throughout the document on the previous run: 
\glsentryprevtotalcount{css}.

Total number of times the \texttt{xml} entry was used 
throughout the document on the previous run: 
\glsentryprevtotalcount{xml}.
