Uwe Lück submitted the
commado
package to CTAN.
Summary description: Expandable iteration on comma-separated and filename lists
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
`commado.sty' provides
\DoWithCSL{<cmd>}{<list>}
to apply an existing one-parameter macro <cmd> to each item
in a list <list> in which items are separated by commas.
`filesdo.sty' provides
\DoWithBasesExts{<cmd>}{<bases>}{<exts>}
to run <cmd>{<base>.<ext>} for some (at most) one-parameter
macro <cmd>, each base filename <base> in the comma-separated
list <bases> and each extension in the comma-separated list
<exts>.
As opposed to LaTeX’s internal \@for, no assignments are
involved (unless <cmd> uses assignments, "expandability" in
"TeX’s gullet").
Both packages are "generic," i.e., should work with Plain
TeX, LaTeX or even other formats, relying on the `plainpkg'
package for some minimal LaTeX-like behaviour.
RELATED PACKAGES: `loops' and others mentioned in the
`dowith' package documentation.
KEYWORDS: macro programming, programming structures, loops,
lists
REQUIRED PACKAGES: `plainpkg', `stacklet'
LICENSE: The package files `commado.sty', `filesdo.sty' and
the files `commado.pdf' and `commado.tex' documenting
both package files can be redistributed and/or modified
under the terms of the LaTeX Project Public License;
either version 1.3c of the License, or any later version,

There is NO WARRANTY, indeed this still is somewhat
experimental.
The `commado' package is author-maintained in the sense
of the license.
