[tex-live] \TeX lowering of letter E

[Hartmut Henkel]

Hi,

seems the lowering of the E in \TeX is somehow inconsistent, e. g. in
LaTeX it's 0.5em whereas in ltugboat.cls and cwebmac.tex it's 0.424em.
This shows up when using \XeTeX in ltugboat class, please see example
below, i tried a kludge which adapts to whatever the lowering is:

\documentclass{ltugboat}
\usepackage{graphicx}

\makeatletter
\def\modXeTeX{\leavevmode
  \tubhideheight{\hbox{X%
    \setbox0=\hbox{\TeX}\setbox1=\hbox{E}%
    \lower\dp0\hbox{\raise\dp1\hbox{\kern-.125em\tubreflect{E}}}%
    \kern-.1667em \TeX}}}
\makeatother

\begin{document}
\XeTeX \modXeTeX
\end{document}

What's right?

Regards, Hartmut
