Hi, Hans I've been reading page-str and m-streams these days, but I'm so unfamiliar with ConTeXt's output routine. So one thing leads to another, I have to read more files to look for the definitions of some low-level macros used in these files. And I get confused.
Maybe this kind of extension is too hard for me now. Could you give me an example (as small as possible) to make subpages and combine them onto one page? By the way, the m-streams module seems not working pretty well with columns. I think maybe more setups should be put into "streamlayer:block:settings" but I really don't know what to do.
