If you liked my earlier proposal for a finer-grained restrict
(1 2 3 4) you might like this slightly more serious proposal for named constants in C on Jens Gustedt's blog.
Or not.
Here is a simple test to tell if you are likely to be interested: if you can readily discuss the relative advantages of const int C=1;
#define C 1
and enum { C = 1 };
you will probably find Jens' proposal for arbitrary types fascinating.
