Hi, <br><br> Thanks for sharing your experience, I have checked this page, and find it very useful.<br>However, I didn't find any notes about installing it in **my own Home directory** by setting <br>proper TEXMFLOCAL, etc. The XeTeX trees are installed in my *HOME/texmf*, but the binaries<br>

Done! Thanks a lot! In fact, I saw that I could download ``a tarball<br>
from the ViewVC interface at <a href="http://scripts.sil.org/svn-view/xetex/" target="_blank">http://scripts.sil.org/svn-view/xetex/</a><br>
TRUNK'', and that's what I did; then I ran the two scripts you<br>
mention, and now I have xetex 0.997!<br>

<br>
And it really was that easy.<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
<br>
