As I wrote above, I may have a wrong perception as to what you mean by
"multiple columns".

From what you write I now derive you are talking about word processor
functionality with automatic text flow, breaking etc.

If I understood you correct, then we agree:
Lilypond can't do that.

What I was refering to is best illustrated by the list of the following
snippets from the LSR (you probably know some of them already):
http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=628
http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=464
http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=1013
http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=586

The text tables I had been referring to that I create regularly are like
the one I've attached.

Kind regards,
Michael
