> Key processor that combines features of xkeyval and pgfkeys.
>
> New features:
>
> 1. Providing the key's argument pattern within the key's callback:
>
> skvordkey[KV]{fam}{key1}[default1a/1b]{%
> .arg expanded{#1/#2}
> defmylength{#1}defmywidth{#2}%
> }
>
> 2. List-processor keys. E.g.,
>
> skvlistkeys[KV]{fam}{key1,key2}[default1a,1b; default2a,2b]{%
> .arg{#1,#2}listsep{;}somemethod{#1}{#2}%
> }
>
> 3. Handlers such as in
>
> defvaluelist{1,2,3,4}
> skvsetkeys[KV]{fam}{keya=.expand once process list{valuelist}}
>
> for a (non-list) key defined as an ordinary key:
>
> skvordkey[KV]{fam}{keya}{defmyitem{#1}}
>
> 4. Prefix and family can be fixed for subsequent keys. E.g.,
>
> skvsetprefix{KV}
> skvsetfamily{fam}
>
> 5. Option and nonoption keys:
>
> skvoptionkeys[KV]{fam}{key1}
> skvnonoptionkeys[KV]{fam}{key2,key3}
>
> 6. Bug fixes.

Summary description: A modern curriculum vitae class
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
version 1.3.0 (09 Feb 2013)
- added a new environment to create multiple columns: cvcolumns. Each column is then created by cvcolumn[width]{header}{content}, where the optional width is given as a fraction of the total width (between 0 and 1). The header and content are robust and can contain any paragraph command (e.g., a nest itemize environment).
- added a macro (pdfpagemode) to control what is visible upon opening compiled pdfs (assuming pdf reader support), as suggested by U. Stöhr. Possible values include: UseNone (only the document), UseThumbs (show thumbnails), UseOutlines (show bookmarks) and FullScreen (open in fullscreen mode).
- added a 3rd, fully optional (can be omitted or left blank) argument to address to specify a country, as requested on launchpad (launchpad bug #1063995).
- compacted list environments further.
- replaced the usage of the xargs package by the xparse one.
