Hi there,
I'm trying to get some poems in a bilingual document using streams.
According to the wiki (http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Columns#Streams),
this example should work:
\usemodule[streams]
\def\StartCouple{\page\SwitchToNormal}
\def\StopCouple{\SwitchToNormal\SynchronizeLeftAndRight\FlushLeftAndRight}
\def\Original{\SwitchToNormal\SynchronizeLeftAndRight\SwitchToLeft}
\def\Translation{\SwitchToRight}
\starttext
\StartCouple
\Original\en
Are you sleeping, brother John?
\Translation\de
Bruder Jakob, schläfst du noch?
\StopCouple
\stottext
But I get this error:
l.19 \defineoutputstream
[\v!left]
! ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!
mtx-context | fatal error: return code: 1
Compilation failed.
The example at http://source.contextgarden.net/m-streams.tex (referenced
by the wiki page) doesn't work for me either. This is all Greek to me.
What am I missing here?
Thanks for your help,
Pablo

You don’t need the module to use streams, read this older message:

Many thanks for your answer, Wolfgang.
As the reply to that message
(http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2011/063358.html), I wonder how
could I get facing chapters with Greek text with facing pages containing
the Spanish translation.
I'm afraid that the code you provided is too complex for me (I don't
understand a word there).
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo
