Hello,
the following code doesn't produce vertical rule between columns:
---- \starttext \startsimplecolumns[n=2,rule=on] \input knuth \stopsimplecolumns
\blank
\startcolumns[rule=on] \input knuth \column \input knuth \stopcolumns \stoptext ----
My fault? Bug?
Yes and no. Simplecolumns are as the name implies a few very simple mechanism and don't support vertical lines between the columns. The normal columns environment uses the mixedcolumns code where you have to use "separator=rule" to get a vertical line between columns. Wolfgang
