Hi,

Say I want Tufte in 2 columns and Knuth in 1 column:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\starttext
\startcolumns[n=2]
   \startsection[title=Tufte]
     \input tufte
   \stopsection
   \startsection[title=Tufte and Knuth]
     \input tufte
\stopcolumns
     \input knuth  % \startcolumns[n=1] knuth \stopcolumns does not work
\startcolumns[n=2]
     \input tufte
   \stopsection
\stopcolumns
\stoptext
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

It works, but isn't this a bit ugly to mix up the \starts and \stops ?
In XML, that would be wrong.

Is this just the normal ConTeXt way, or is there a cleaner method?

no, mixing this way is asking for troubles, if not now, than maybe in the future

just use \section
