[plt-scheme] Enumeration types

It would greatly depend on what you were doing. If you're using the 
enumerated symbols to stand for some properties as they are very
commonly used, then all you need are symbols in scheme. If you are
using them another way, then I'm affraid I'd need more context as
scheme is very different from C and often there are no equivalents
