I see many pre-processor macros in the reference section of the
documentation but I don't see any good overview explaining the various
macros or groups of macros and the ideas behind them. What I am looking for
is a good overview of what macros are in the library. One section shows
examples, but they seem very random and don't seem to explain functionality
or ideas very well.

The preprocessor library would be much more understandable if the ideas
behind the macros were discussed and if an overview allowed end users to
understand what is in the library. I have a feeling there are some valuable
techniques there, as the library has been muched praised, but I can't
discern how they macros are organized to provide functionality.
