Hi,

 

I need to process a comma separated list, and adapt the formatting according to the position of an item in the list (example below). Expected output would be:

{\bf foo

}, {\em bar} and baz.

 

Is that possible? Can I somehow get the position of an item in the list? (My understanding is that \processcommalist and \processcommacommand apply a command to each list item, but there is no such thing as «position in the list»... I hope I’m wrong here.)

 

Or is that something where using Lua would be a better choice?

 

Best,

Denis
