OK, thanks David. I will see if LuaTeX can handle my existing work on
the book (which of course assumed plain XeTeX), and if it can, I will
switch to LuaTeX for this project. But do you know how one does the
plain LuaTeX equivalent of :
\usepackage{fontspec}
\newfontfamily\chess[Renderer=HarfBuzz]{BabelStoneXiangqiColour.ttf}
I /really/ don't want to have to use packages unnecessarily.
