+== Introduction ==
+
+Each model input is assigned an Enum in order to be found quickly (integers are easier to compare than strings).
+
+== Add a new Enum ==
+
+If you want to add a new Enum, the ONLY file that needs to be changed is src/c/shared/Enum/EnumDefinitions.h`. Open it with you favorite editor (vim) and add your new Enum. Make sure that:
+ - It does not already exist (the compiler will tell you anyway)
+ - It finishes with `Enum,`
+
+Then you can run a synchronization script that will update the matlab and python Enum, StringToEnum and EnumToString automatically:
+
+{{{
+!bash
+cd $ISSM_DIR/src/c/shared/Enum/EnumDefinitions.h
+./Synchronize.sh
+}}}
+
+You will then need to recompile the entire trunk (not just src/c), and there is no need to reconfigure:
+
+{{{
+!bash
+cd $ISSM_DIR/
+make install
+}}}
+
+== Checking in the changes ==
+
+In order to commit the new Enum, you will need to `svn add` the new matlab file in `$ISSM_DIR/src/m/enum`, and then commit all the files in `$ISSM_DIR/src/m/enum` and `$ISSM_DIR/src/c/shared/Enum`
