+The following macros force a page break if a multi-column layout is
+active when they are called. The <code class="code">MINGW</code> register stores the
+default minimum gutter width; it is a GNU extension. When multiple
+columns are in use, keeps and the <code class="code">HORPHANS</code> and <code class="code">PORPHANS</code>
+registers work with respect to column breaks instead of page breaks.
