Hi Wolfgang, thank you for your answer! Aha, mkiv does not need the module. So I tried first the example en then used my actual document. - It runs through indeed! Now there is still the question whether it is possible to place e.g. on the left page German text and in parallel on the right page Dutch text? Have a nice evening!

Hi,
I was looking for a possibility to typeset an article left in the original language and right in the translation.I found then the mail of Thomas, when he announced the availability of streams (2006). - Great, that is what I am looking for!
However when issuing \usemodule[streams] I get immediately a fatal error: undefined controlsequence. I believe is \defineoutputstream.
So it looks like the module is broken. - Is there another approach to get two texts in different languages next to each other?
You don’t need the mode for MkIV. Below is a example copied from the source:
% \enabletrackers[streams.flushing] % % \setuplayout[grid=yes] \showgrid % % \starttext % % \input tufte % % \startoutputstream[nl] % % Wat doen we hier? % % \enableoutputstream[en] % % Are you sleeping, brother John?\footnote{xxx} % % \dorecurse{4}{x \footnote{note \recurselevel}\input tufte \par \pushoutputstream} % % \enableoutputstream[de] % % Bruder Jakob, schläfst du noch?\footnote{yyy} % % \dorecurse{4}{x \footnote{note \recurselevel}\input ward \par \pushoutputstream} % % \disableoutputstream % % \stopoutputstream % % Vader Jacob, slaap je nog?\footnote{zzz} % % \input tufte % % \synchronizestreams[en,de,nl] % % \page \flushoutputstream[en] \input knuth % \page \flushoutputstream[de] \input knuth % \page \flushoutputstream[nl] \input knuth % % \stoptext
