Those who are setting type on PCs (i.e., most of the list participants,
among others) usually have no choice as to whether they bother. As far as
I am aware, the only common layout application that supports hung
punctuation is InDesign, although I wouldn't be surprised if TeX could do
it as well.

Are there any other such applications? (Asking as a trivia fanatic :-)
