Amen. The unreadability of code like that quoted has little to do with
the use of struct keywords.
On a related note, I am in favor of using typedef with enum types --
just not with structs. In other words, I prefer:
typedef enum {
...
} name_t;
This difference stems from the simple fact that enum types are mostly
referenced by value; there, the code will be forced to have the full
definition of the type anyway.
In contrast, most structures are referenced by pointer, where the size
of the underlying type does not matter.
Cheers,
Zach
