The .2C macro in -ms and -mm, both included with DWB 3.1, produce 2 column output. The Tutorial in the troff documentation for DWB 3.1 includes a 20-line implementation. You most assuredly can't use tbl unless you read left-to-right across columns. I assume you want readers to read all of column 1 before starting column 2.
