I want two frames side by side: the left frame comprising just text (and

I can get the two frames looking just right, but no matter how thin I
make them, they display one under the other, not side by side.

Any ideas?

You're looking for combinations http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Combinations The text on the wiki is a bit misleading because it seems to imply that they can only hold images; combinations can have any content.
