st: Is there a way to tell if a local macro contains a particular value

Hi all,
Say I have a local macro with a list of variable names: local myvars var1
var3 var5.
Now say I'm iterating over all my variables (var1-var6), and want to do
something if the variable is in `myvars.' Is there a simple way to
determine this?
Thanks,
Max
