+Les extensions ε-TeX de <latex>\TeX</latex> sont une gamme de nouvelles fonctionnalités ajoutées par le [[1_generalites:histoire:developpement_du_moteur_tex|NTS]] au programme <latex>\TeX</latex> original de Donald Knuth.
-[change in any substantial way](./FAQ-TeXfuture.html), there remain
-things that one might wish had been done differently, or indeed
-implemented at all.
-The NTS project set out to produce an advanced replacement for
+Dans une distribution <latex>\TeX</latex> moderne, les extensions sont activées pour presque tous les formats sauf <latex>\TeX</latex> de Knuth lui-même. En tant que tel, la plupart des utilisateurs n'utiliseront jamais un système ne comportant pas ε-TeX : en effet, <latex>\LaTeXe</latex> en a besoin depuis 2017.
-TeX, to provide a basis for developing such modifications: this
-''New Typesetting System'' would share Knuth's aims, but would
-implement the work in a modern way taking account of the lessons
-learned with TeX.  While a first demonstrator NTS did
-appear, it wasn't practically useful, and the project seems no longer
-active.
-In parallel with its work on NTS itself, the project developed
-a set of extensions that can be used with a (''true'') TeX system.
-Such a modified system is known as an &epsilon;-TeX system, and the concept
-has proved widely successful.  Indeed, current TeX distributions
-are delivered with most formats built with an &epsilon;-TeX-based system (for
-those who don't want them, &epsilon;-TeX's extensions can be disabled, leaving
-a functionally standard TeX system).
-The extensions range from the seemingly simple (increasing the number
-of available registers from 256 to 32768) through to extremely subtle
-programming support.
-[CONTeXT](./FAQ-context.html) has required &epsilon;-TeX for its operation
-for some time, though development is now focused on the use of
-[LuaTeX](./FAQ-luatex.html).
-Some LaTeX packages already specify the use of &epsilon;-TeX.  Some such
-packages may not work at all on a non-&epsilon;-TeX system; others will
-work, but not as well as on an &epsilon;-TeX system.  The
-[LaTeX team](./FAQ-LaTeX3.html) has announced that future LaTeX
-packages (specifically those from the team, as opposed to those
-individually contributed) may require &epsilon;-TeX for optimum performance.
