I am currently using CM Tooltip Glossary but it has a lot of extra features which
make me confused. I was always looking for a plugin that has the required features
for tooltip glossary and I found this. It’s very simple and comes with only the 
essential features, also, it is very easy to setup. Thanks for offering this.
