Dear all,

Forgive me if I sound naive. I searched the archives, but could not find the solution for my following problem:

I need to have line numbers for the text formatted in two columns. The numbers for left column shall appear in the left side and that for right column shall appear in the right side of the page. location=inmargin option to the \setuplinenumbering doesn't help much. Please take a look at the following image:

which will give you an idea of my requirement. Any help in this matter will be highly apprecaited and thanks in advance.

I do not know how to automate what you want. An ugly solution is to specify the column breaks yourself, something like \unprotect \def\dosetuplinenumbering[#1]% {\getparameters[\??rn][\c!start=1,\c!step=1,#1]% % \global\linenumber\plusone % Do not reset linenumber. Why is this here? } \protect \starttext \startcolumns \setuplinenumbering[location=inleft] \startlinenumbering \input knuth \stoplinenumbering \column \setuplinenumbering[location=inright] \startlinenumbering[continue] \input knuth \stoplinenumbering \stopcolumns \stoptext Aditya
