\maketitle

This package provides a means of producing numbers with a separator
(by default a comma) every three digits.

Given a \LaTeX\ counter (eg \texttt{section})
%
\begin{verbatim}
\renewcommand\thesection{\commaform{section}}
\end{verbatim}
%
If \texttt{section} is 12345, \cmd{\thesection} will now print as 12,345

If you want something other than a comma, for instance a thin
space, or a full word space, redefine \cmd{\commaformtoken}, for instance
%
\begin{verbatim}
\renewcommand\commaformtoken{\,}
\renewcommand\commaformtoken{ }
\end{verbatim}
