I'm trying to typeset English and German texts in two columns.
With the following example every bilingual section goes on a new
page. How can I avoid that?
(Using only "columns" instead of "columnsets" I get single-section
pages with alternating languages.)
%% setup
\definecolumnset[twocol][n=2]
\setuphead[chapter][page=no, number=no, align=right]
\usemodule[streams]
% example from the streams module
% only enhanced by columnset
\def\StartCouple{\page\startcolumnset[twocol]\SwitchToNormal}
\def\StopCouple {\SwitchToNormal \SynchronizeLeftAndRight
\FlushLeftAndRight\stopcolumnset}
\def\Original {\SwitchToNormal\SynchronizeLeftAndRight\SwitchToLeft}
\def\Translation{\SwitchToRight}
%% text snippet
\StartCouple

Staatsbürgerlichkeit}

\Original\de
Zum 50. Jahrestag der Unterzeichnung der Römischen Verträge der
Europäischen Union hat die European Humanist Federation am 25. März
2007 die Brüsseler Erklärung veröffentlicht. Hierin wird nochmals
bekräftigt, dass Europa auf einer Vielzahl von Kulturen und
Traditionen beruht, und seine Bürger der Geschichtsklitterung vom
christlichen Abendland entgegenwirken müssen.
\Translation\en
At the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Rome treaties which
established the European Union the European Humanist Federation
published the Brussels declaration. It affirms once more Europe’s
foundation to consist of many cultures and traditions and reminds its
citizens to work against the biased historical account of the
Christian occident.
