+Horizontal and vertical alignment can be set up with:
+
+\shortsetup{setupalign}
+
+Single lines can be aligned with:
+
+\starttyping
+\rightaligned{}
+\leftaligned{}
+\midaligned{}
+\stoptyping
+
+An example can illustrate the alignment behavior:
+
+\startbuffer
+\leftaligned {Hasselt was built on a sandhill.}
+\midaligned {Hasselt was built on the crossing of two rivers.}
+\rightaligned {Hasselt's name stems from hazelwood.}
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer
+
+After processing this would look like:
+
+\getbuffer
+
+Alignment of a paragraph is done with:
+
+\shortsetup{startalignment}
+
+\startbuffer
+\startalignment[flushright,nothyphenated]
+ For Hasselt the 15th and 16th century were relatively unstable times.
+ There were uprises and disputes with neighbouring cities. To be
+ able to defend themselves the city council ordered a number of
+ arquebuses (very primitive firearms). Fourteen of these have survived
+ and now form one of the greatest arquebus collections in Europe.
+\stopalignment
+\stopbuffer
+
+\typebuffer
+
+This will become a rightaligned paragraph without hyphenations:
+
+\getbuffer
+
+In case of alignment you can specify a tolerance and the direction (vertical or
+horizontal). Normally the tolerance is \type{verystrict}. In colums you could
+specify \type{verytolerant}. The tolerance in this manual is:
+
+\starttyping
+\setuptolerance[horizontal,verystrict]
+\stoptyping
