+// method takes no parameters, use ACCEPT_SIZE_ONLY or
+// ACCEPT_SIZE_ENDIAN_ONLY.
+
+// When calling the method, instead of using fn<size>, use fn
+// SELECT_SIZE_NAME or SELECT_SIZE_ENDIAN_NAME.  And after the last
+// argument, put SELECT_SIZE(size) or SELECT_SIZE_ENDIAN(size,
+// big_endian).  If there is only one argment, use the _ONLY variants.
