So do I, Martin, very clearly indeed. And I also remember e-TeX, developed within the same project team and as important today as it was during its evolutionary years. It is in the nature of both software development and of evolution that some mutations will succeed, others will fail. e-TeX succeeded, NTS failed. It is as simple as that. ** Phil. -------------------------------------------------- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex
