I'm afraid that I get widow lines in the lines environment.
Is there no way to avoid orphans and widows in the lines environment?
It's a bit ugly, but if the poem consists of individual stanzas, you can put each stanza in an non-bordered frame.
e.g.: % Set up the lines environment to put the contained lines in a frame so they are kept together \setuplines[indenting={yes,small,even}, <-- whatever options you want before={\startframedtext[frame=off]}, after=\stopframedtext]
% Then wrap your stanzas in individual line environments \startlines A maiden fair was seated there, Her hair of fine-spun gold. Azure eyes so clear and bright, So wondrous to behold. \stoplines
A frame will never be split across pages.
BTW this "trick"is on the wiki on the "Verse" page.
You don’t need any tricks to prevent page breaks in a lines environment because \setuplines[option=packed] already does it. Wolfgang
