The backslash is line continuation, so that the macro can span
more than one line.  (macro definitions always terminate at the
end of the line.)  In this case, I just used it so the whole
definition would fit on an 80-column line (with the "#define name"
on the previous line), but I've seen macros that span tens of
lines easily...
