  We extend the analysis of two-hadron fragmentation functions to the
subleading twist, discussing also the issue of color gauge invariance. Our
results can be used anywhere two unpolarized hadrons are semi-inclusively
produced in the same fragmentation region, also at moderate values of the hard
scale Q. Here, we consider the example of polarized deep-inelastic production
of two hadrons and we give a complete list of cross sections and spin
asymmetries up to subleading twist. Among the results, we highlight the
possibility of extracting the transversity distribution with longitudinally
polarized targets and also the twist-3 distribution e(x), which is related to
the pion-nucleon sigma term and to the strangeness content of the nucleon.
