Thanks, Hans. I have now tried
... preliminary text ....
\starttabulate[|p|p|]
\NC
long paragraph A
\NC
long paragraph B
\NC\NR
\stoptabulate
on my setup (ConTeXt 2008.08.04 MK II) and on the wiki (ConTeXt
2008.08.27 MK II).
On the wiki:
the tabulated paragraphs do not follow upon the preliminary text
immediately on the same page but start on their own page.
On my setup:
the tabulated paragraphs do not follow upon the preliminary text
immediately on the same page but start on their own page after some 22
blank pages! (If I run ConTeXt again this number increases.) The
entire document should be 6 pages long.
I am trying to update any version of ConTeXt---updates after
2008.08.04 will not compile for some reason (I get format mismatch
errors). So for now, if I could get this to work on the wiki that
would be progress of sorts.
