Hi, Ángel. Like this?

\def\mylist{Fulano,Mengano,Sutano}

\def\mycommand#1{#1\blank{\red Something here}\blank}

\starttext

\processcommacommand[\mylist]\mycommand

\stoptext

There are better ways to deal with data in ConTeXt, but it's basically that way, I think.

Hello:

I am trying to print a list of names always followed by the same info
(generated by a new command).  At the moment, I have all the names
followed by the command like so:

        Person Number One
        \mycommand
        Person Number Two
        \mycommand
        Person Number Three
        \mycommand
        Person Number Four
        \mycommand
        Person Number Five
        \mycommand
        .
        .
        .

I'd rather have the list of people stored somewhere (a list? an array?)
and loop through it and then inserting \mynewcommand at compilation
time.  That way, when I need to replace the list of people with a new
one, I'd just do that instead of building the above structure again and
again.

Is it possible to do that with just ConTeXt or would I need to resort to
Lua.  I guess it should be possible both ways, but I haven't figure out
how to do it.  Any pointer, please?

Thank you so much in advance.

Cheers,
Ángel
