was once the main guide. Aleph was a merge of etex and Omega, succeeded by luatex. You can still use the old Omega way of doing things in luatex -- as explained in that guide, but it's better to use the new mechanism and opentype fonts.

My luatex is not working for the moment, I am using the context minimals distribution on MacOS X.

Would the old Omega way documented on that page also work with the xetex engine?

Thanks + kind regards,
