Hi,
I need to typeset two poems side by side. Usually, I use the tabulate environment for typesetting parallel texts. However, for poems this does not quite work as tabulate does not seem to allow blanks between the stanzas. See MWE below. Am I missing someting? Is there a better way to achieve this?
How about columnsets or paragraphs? \definecolumnset[Zwei][n=2] \startcolumnset[Zwei] \startlines Starlight, star bright, first star I see tonight; \stoplines \column \startlines I wish I may, I wish I might have the wish I wish tonight. \stoplines \stopcolumnset \defineparagraphs[Zwei][n=2] \setupparagraphs[Zwei][1][ width=.45\textwidth, distance=2em, align={verytolerant,stretch}] % width of 2nd column is calculated automatically \startZwei ... \nextZwei ... \stopZwei Hraban
