[omega] typesetting biblical hebrew with makor and a protext install

[Yannis Haralambous]

Omega, TeX, eTeX, pdfTeX are not dead: they are contained in luaTeX.

It is only natural that the authors of these programs use (or will  
use, as soon as it is possible) luatex, since it contains their code  
plus many new and extremely interesting things.

I suggest you switch to luatex, but I wouldn't suggest you switch to  
ConTeXt. (I'm also biased)
