Summary description: An expandable key=val implementation
Announcement text:
expkv is a fast, reliable and expandable key=val implementation. It has a simplistic feature-set, can handle active commas and equal signs correctly, and strips at most one pair of outer braces predictably and only after spaces are trimmed.

expkv – An expandable key=val implementation
expkv is a minimalistic but fast and expandable <key>=<val> implementation.
It provides two parsing macros:
- \ekvset{<set>}{<key=val list>} which is comparable to keyval’s \setkeys.
- \ekvparse<cs1><cs2>{<key=val list>} which can be used inside \expanded and expands to <cs1>{key} and <cs2>{key}{val} for the entries in the <key=val list>.
expkv has predictable brace-stripping behaviour and handles commas and equal signs with category codes 12 and 13 correctly.
A key-defining interface that is not as rudimentary as the macros provided in this package is contained in expkv-def.
