Thanks Otared,

that looks very promising. My attempt to wrap the arguments with \NC \NR fails, though.
It looks like only the first argument is used, and I am clearly missing something.
Also, I’d like to use the example you posted but without the last comma so that in the example below
I get (4,5) instead of (4,5,).

Matthias


\definemathmatrix
  [pmatrix]
  [left={\left(\,},right={\,\right)}]
  

\def\docolumnvector#1{\NC#1\NR}
  
\def\columnvector#1
{\startpmatrix
\processcommalist[#1]\docolumnvector
\stoppmatrix}


\def\dorowvector#1{#1,}
  
\def\rowvector#1
{\startpmatrix
\processcommalist[#1]\dorowvector
\stoppmatrix}

\starttext

\startformula
\columnvector{1,2,3}
\stopformula

\startformula
\rowvector{4,5}
\stopformula

\stoptext
