\starttext
\dorecurse{26}{\convertnumber{a}{#1}\expanded{\index{\convertnumber{a}{#1}}}}
\placeregister[index]%[n=3]
\stoptext

How do I produce an index with more than one column?This produces one column only:\startchapter[title=\mytitle{Register}]\startcolumns[n=2]\placeregister[index]\stopcolumnsNor did \placeregister[index][n=2] or \placeindex[n=2], with or without the columns envirenment, produce the result wanted.The \startsimplecolumns[n=2] environment did produce two columns, but then played havoc with the textheight.dr.
