Well, Here is the reason. We have question blocks, longanswer blocks,
and shortanswer blocks. We are typesetiing all in 2-column mode.
However, every now and then, one of the longanswer blocks is too
difficult to typeset in two column mode and we'd like to switch over
to 1-column mode. So, if we to texmfstart texexec --mode=long
filename, with source somewhat like the following, some of our long
answers, say exercises 25-30, really need to be set in one-column
mode. We are looking for ideas.
% Exercise #1
\beginquestion
\startquestion
\stopquestion
\endquestion
\beginlonganswer
\startanswer
\stopanswer
\endlonganswer
\beginshortanswer
\startanswer
\stopanswer
\endshortanswer
...
% Exercise #40
\beginquestion
\startquestion
\stopquestion
\endquestion
\beginlonganswer
\startanswer
\stopanswer
\endlonganswer
\beginshortanswer
\startanswer
\stopanswer
\endshortanswer

Hi David,

All,
If we have about 45 question blocks and accompanying answer blocks,
how can we typset some of the answer blocks in two column mode, other
of the answer blocks in one column mode, and the rest back in two
column mode. We don't mind manually editing a file to accomplish
this.
I would not know how to do that (nicely, or at all). Using buffers
may be easier.

if I have not replied to you yet, I will not at all, and you may have
