Hello *roffers. Excuse me if this question has been answered zillions of time, or if it is all absurd, but I don't find an answer ...
I want to typeset parallel texts, like a translation, the original *always* in the left column, the translation *always* right. TeX has the "parallel" package which does exactly that. Is a thing like that possible in groff, any macro package? Moreover, is a thing possible not to have vertical columns, but horizontal texts, above and below, like page 1 page 2 aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ...aaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa --------------- --------------- bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb ...bbbbbbbbbbbb bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb... bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb What would I have to learn to write a page trap macro or a diversion &c. to get this effect? Perhaps a modification of footnotes? Cheers, Erich -- "Let's not make bad things worse."
