It may be that Yannis and other omega users still need them. luatex used be a direct replacement for aleph (well, almost), so that with little mods one could run an aleph file once upon a time....
The translation filters already have been removed a while ago so old omega code will not run as expected. Also, the number of directions has been limited (after we discussed it with John at eurotex).
Do you propose to drop \Omegaversion because you changed the Omega code and forgot to increase the version number? :) Regards, Reinhard -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reinhard Kotucha Phone: +49-511-3373112 Marschnerstr. 25 D-30167 Hannover mailto:reinhard.kotucha@web.de ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Microsoft isn't the answer.
