just when i thought i might get to bed early, the upload daemon popped up with:

Announcement text given by the package's contributor:

keycommand is a eTeX/LaTeX package that provides a very natural way to define commands with optional keys.

The package provides :

ewkeycommand, enewkeycommand, providekeycommand

ewkeyenvironment, enewkeyenvironment

and also keycmd for a more advanced interface.

It is based on the kvsetkeys package by Heiko Oberdiek.

thanks for the upload; i've installed the package and written a description for the catalogue repository.

Users may view the package catalogue entry at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/keycommand.html or they may browse the package directory at http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/keycommand

of course, the catalogue entry won't even appear until the overnight processing run has happened.
