This mainly deals with code clarity- removing currently unneeded optimizations in order to make the code much more readable and type-checkable. Every enum in the library now has it's own type that should be used instead of the generic 'unsigned char'. In addition, several #define statements dealing with constants were converted to enums.

Uh.. what do you need all this types for...? There are currently 30 custom types over the lib (IIGC). Does this really bring more clarity? Do you need to typecheck an error-level? Hannes -- http://saeurebad.de/~hannes/
