+ *
+ * \include test/snippet/argument_parser/named_enumeration.cpp
+ *
+ * Please note that by default the `t const`, `t &` and `t const &` specialisations of this class inherit the
+ * specialisation for `t` so you usually only need to provide a specialisation for `t`.
+ *
+ * \note Only use this if you cannot provide respective functions in your namespace. See the tutorial
+ * \ref tutorial_argument_parser for an example of customising a type within your own namespace.
