Hi, Most programming languages allow extraction of a character or substring from a string. For example, if I wanted to stylize the word Index: *I...* Index *...X* It would be handy to do something like: \bold{\getcharacter[1]{#!}}... #1 ...\bold{\getcharacter[\stringlength{#!}]} That is a much more flexible solution than only providing a mechanism to get the first character. Is this possible? Kind regards.
