Dear list,

is there a way to avoid clubs and widows in columns? I don't know, how it would be implemented, if the task is splitting typeset vertical list.

\setuppapersize[A7]
\starttext
\startcolumns[separator=rule,
              align={right,nothyphenated}]
\dorecurse{12}{→ one two three four five\par}
\stopcolumns
\stoptext 
 

For a different task: are there some higher level commands in ctx than \vsplit primitive to play with vbox splitting?

Thank you,
Jano
