If they are used by assiging one of their values, definitely a good idea to use an enum. Are debuggers clever enough that they can tell, when they see something like this: enum gress { PROGRESS = 1, REGRESS = 2, }; void func(enum gress v); ... void caller(void) { func(PROGRESS | REGRESS); func(PROGRESS + REGRESS); func(PROGRESS * 3); } how caller came about to give 3?
