For TeX I'd think in decades. And support in the way TeX understands this term is constant development and constant updating. TeX is alive. > > Or is XeTeX not intended to be used in these environments? XeTeX is likely to stop in development, maybe before reaching version 1.0, because of the lack of active developers (and because of improving alternatives like LuaTeX). So soon you'll have a software that will last longer than your hardware and won't need updating. BTW, XeTeX from five years ago was a bit away from perfection and quite a few bugs richer. Particularly the xdvipdfmx convertor was heavily improved. -- Greetings Pete The best way to accelerate a PC is 9.8 m/s² -------------------------------------------------- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex
