#define and structs

[surefire]

I'm working on an enigma machine simulator. I'd supposed to do a #define for each one of the rotors and reflectors. How do you do a #define for a char string? I have the program partially functional without using #define, so I'd like there to be as little changes as possible after using #define.

/*reflectors*/
char B_ref_rotor[27] = "YRUHQSLDPXNGOKMIEBFZCWVJAT";
char C_ref_rotor[27] = "FVPJIAOYEDRZXWGCTKUQSBNMHL";


/* rotors */
char rotor[5][27] = { 
		"EKMFLGDQVZNTOWYHXUSPAIBRCJ",
		"AJDKSIRUXBLHWTMCQGZNPYFVOE",
		"BDFHJLCPRTXVZNYEIWGAKMUSQO",
		"ESOVPZJAYQUIRHXLNFTGKDCMWB",
		"VZBRGITYUPSDNHLXAWMJQOFECK",
};

After I get that figured out, I need to use structs and typedefs for whenever I want to access the rotor strings. I think it will be something like the following, but I'm not exactly sure.

struct rotors {
	char rotor[5][27];
};
typedef struct rotors Rotor;

Thanks everyone.

Why do you think you need a #define? Do you want:

#define FOO "thisisastringthatwillbewhereveryouuseFOO"

Or what?
