\title{\texttt{\textbackslash Columns} alignment}
\date{}
\maketitle
\begin{abstract}
This file provides example of setting the alignment of \verb+\Columns+ on the page: right (default), left or center.

The column are 0.44\verb+\textwidth+, and we use \verb+\columnsposition+.

We also provide a last example, showing how we can manipulate space between colons, by redefining \verb+\beforecolumnseparator+ and \verb+\aftercolumnseparator+.

\section{Center, setting space between columns}

Now, we set the spaces between columns, to have all the line occupied.
