+/**
+ * @brief Struct to store names for enums.
+ *
+ * To print the string representation of enumeration values, the strings
+ * are stored in these structures. Every enum_name contains a range
+ * of strings, multiple ranges are linked together.
+ * Use the convenience macros to define these linked ranges.
+ *
+ * For a single range, use:
+ * ENUM(name, first, last, string1, string2, ...)
+ *
+ * For multiple linked ranges, use:
+ * ENUM_BEGIN(name, first, last, string1, string2, ...)
+ * ENUM_NEXT(name, first, last, last_from_previous, string3, ...)
+ * ENUM_NEXT(name, first, last, last_from_previous, string4, ...)
+ * ENUM_END(name, last_from_previous)
+ *
+ * The ENUM and the ENUM_END define a enum_name_t pointer with the name supplied
+ * in "name".
+ *
+ * Resolving of enum names is done using a printf hook. A printf fromat
+ * character %N is replaced by the enum string. Printf needs two arguments to
+ * resolve a %N, the enum_name_t* (the defined name in ENUM_BEGIN) followed
+ * by the numerical enum value.
