///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
LIST OF FILES THAT WERE SKIPPED AND NOT TRANSLATED:

1. utility.h
 - because FPC provides overloaded functions Math.Min() and Math.Max() in RTL,
   which are similar in meaning to the ENET_MIN() and ENET_MAX() macros, and
   the ENET_DIFFERENCE() macro is used only by the library code itself.

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
LIST OF IDENTIFIERS RENAMED DUE TO NAME CONFLICTS:

1. ENET_HOST_BROADCAST_ = ENET_HOST_BROADCAST
 - case collision with enet_host_broadcast() routine.

2. ENET_PEER_PING_INTERVAL_ = ENET_PEER_PING_INTERVAL
 - case collision with enet_peer_ping_interval() routine.

3. ENetEvent.kind = ENetEvent.type
 - keyword clash with language's `type`.

 - that cool guy from the Doom2D.org community (www.doom2d.org), with whom we
   made the long-awaited multiplayer in Doom2D Forever, which was the initial
   goal of creating the ENet binding for Delphi 7.

 - for many important and useful comments, as well as his own translation of
   ENet headers for Free Pascal. https://pastebin.com/zMYxB982

   ENet to Delphi 7, which helped me a lot when I created this one.
