Jonathan P. Spratte submitted an update to the expkv-cs package: Version: 0.10 2021-06-03 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Define expandable key=val macros using expkv Announcement text:

In this release the behaviour of ekvcValue is changed such that it not only expands in two steps, but also protects the value from further expanding if used inside an edef-expansion context without actively expanding it twice.

The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/expkv-cs The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/generic/expkv-cs/

Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Petra Rübe-Pugliese

expkv-cs – Define expandable key=val macros using expkv

This package is a frontend to define expandable macros with key=val arguments. It provides four syntaxes, each of which will define <cs> to take a single key=val argument:

ekvcSplit<cs>{<key>=<initial>, ...}{<definition>}
ekvcSplitAndForward<cs><cs2>{<key>=<initial>, ...}
ekvcHash<cs>{<key>=<initial>, ...}{<definition>}
ekvcHashAndForward<cs><cs2>{<key>=<initial>, ...}

Additional keys for each <cs> might be defined using

ekvcSecondaryKeys<cs>{<prefix> <key>=<definition>, ...}

expkv-cs is generic code and only requires expkv for its parsing.

A LaTeX package expkv-cs.sty is included to play nicely on LaTeX’s package loading system, but that package is not needed and does not provide more functionality than the generic code in expkv-cs.tex.

Note: In this context, “cs” stands for “control sequence” (i.e.: macro).
