Re: 2 columns: 1 language per column (solved)

[Otared Kavian <otared@gmail.com>]

Hi,

Thanks!
Your solution works as far as creating a « ConTeXt-CLD.engine » which creates a menu item for typesetting a CLD document, upon choosing it for the code written by Peter Münster, provided the suffix of the document's name is .tex, not .cld.

However adding the line 
%!TEX TS-program = ConTeXt-CLD
at the top of the file results in an error message saying:
	 > tex > error on line 72 in file /context-minimal/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/cont-yes.mkiv: LuaTeX error
(here context-minimal is the directory where I have the latest version of the standalone ConTeXt).

Also enclosing the code written by Peter between \startluacode …. \stopluacode in a TEX file does not allow to to typeset the file, contrary to other examples in the manual written by Hans « ConTeXt, Lua Documents ».

In any case thanks for your attention: now there is another way to typeset two languages in two columns…

Best regards: OK
