             README for the `dowith' package
    Apply Command to Each Item in a List of Arguments 
                     in TeX's Mouth
                (C) Uwe Lueck 2012/05/18


`dowith.sty' provides macros for applying a command to all items
in a list of macro arguments, and also for extending and reducing 
macros storing such lists. "Brace groups" are single items of 
such lists, as opposed to token lists. Applications in mind 
belonged to LaTeX, but the package should work with other formats 
as well. Loop and list macros in other packages are discussed. 
Iteration is implemented within "TeX's mouth," so works within 
\write as with `blog.sty'. There is no need for e-TeX.

Privately, I have used macros for a more powerful package where 
the command may have more than one argument and there is a 
"separator" in output, such as a comma or a vertical stroke 
between links. This extended package may soon appear here as well.

KEYWORDS: programming structures; 
          macro programming, loops, list macros
