Hi Hans,
I only use aleph and pdfetex. I am concerned however, because aleph uses an
older version of etex, and so there may be unintended consequences
(& bad for me-<)
Giuseppe is busy, but maybe he has some initial thoughts on this?
Best
Idris

don't worry, the things that i use are available in aleph; also, the
formerly broken register stuff in etex (year ago) does not apply to
aleph which uses a different model
(actually, if you use aleph, context already enters etex mode -)

Hi,
Is anyone using tex i.e. not pdfetex/aleph/xetex? I'd likt to go etex
only which in the end is needed anyway since we run out of token list
registers (in etex more we're already past 255)
