== Description ==
<pre>
n: number of columns, default is n=2
rule: draw a line between the columns, default is off
tolerance: affects spacing, narrow columns should be set tolerant, verytolerant or stretch
distance: gap between the columns
balance: should the columns be balanced, i.e. should they get the same number of lines?
align: left, right (raggedleft, raggedright)
blank: amount of whitespace between paragraphs set in columns. Also accepts a dimension as an argument. Column equivalent of \setupwhitespace
option: with option=background you can use everything that \setupframed offers
direction: default is right, i.e. the first column is on the left; 'left' means the first column is the rightmost.
height: ?
ntop: ?
</pre>
== comment ==
Consider using paragraphs or column sets instead of "simple" columns.
ntop has to do with balancing, but I can't make sense of it. See page-mult.tex / minbalancetoplines.
height is unclear to me
