typing buffers doesn't obey spaces

typing buffers doesn't obey spaces

[Zeljko Vrba]

This is related to Hans' suggestion for typing code next to
text in tabulate environment. The following fragment has a
slight problem:

\definebuffer[CodeSnippet]
\startCodeSnippet
\starttyping
first line

second line
\stoptyping
\stopCodeSnippet

When I do a \getbuffer[CodeSnippet] inside tabulate, the empty
line is suppressed :( How to fix it (empty lines really do improve
readability of the source)?

BTW, why it is not possible to have \starttyping/\stoptyping inside
'p' column in tabulate?

dunno, just remove \start-stoptyping and use \typebuffer[CodeSnippet] instead

does not work here, the empty line is ignored:

\definebuffer[CodeSnippet]
\startCodeSnippet
first line

second line
\stopCodeSnippet
\starttext
\starttabulate[|p|r|]
\NC \typebuffer[CodeSnippet] \NC none \NC\NR
\NC hello \NC hello \NC\NR
\stoptabulate
\stoptext
