Manual

Does this sound familiar to you?

Two items from the second to the first column, and one from the second to the third - no, wait! One from the third to the second! No, but I already moved one the other way - TWO from the third to the second... Argh!

Actual dialogue from every time TNT release a new colour, there. BUT NO LONGER! Thanks to the Macbeth Columnomatic 3000TM, multiple columns is a breeze!

Simply call up the columns template like so:

{{columns|

and enter in your entire list in one go, no cells required!

{{columns|

*[[Acara]] - ''June 28, 2013''

*[[Aisha]] - ''January 4, 2012''

*[[Blumaroo]] - ''August 8, 2013''

*[[Bori]] - ''October 15, 2014''

*[[Chomby]] - ''March 22, 2012''

[... and so on...]

*[[Wocky]] - ''December 12, 2012''

*[[Xweetok]] - ''April 7, 2012''

*[[Yurble]] - ''March 1, 2014''

*[[Zafara]] - ''February 2, 2013''

}}

The Macbeth Columnomatic 3000TM uses an exclusive, clinically studied anti-headache ingredient to automatically create and level off the columns for you. The Columnomatic 3000TM will also centre the columns on the page for you, FREE OF CHARGE. You can over-ride this and set your own table options with the options parameter, like this:

|options=style="float:right;width:75%;"

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!

Using the patent-pending Delightful Index CategorisaTION Auto-Repopulation Yardstick (DICTIONARY), the Columnomatic 3000TM will automatically sort your list into alphabetical order! That's right, you don't even need to think about the list any more! Put the new entries at the end! At the beginning! Anywhere you like, the Columnomatic won't mind.

We guarantee* that it will change how you edit the Neodex... forever. ORDER TODAY!

*not actually guaranteed. Your statutory rights are not affected.
