gnome-c-style
======
- In the C coding style commonly used in GNOME, identifiers are written
- in camel case and function arguments are aligned to the right end.
- That makes it a bit cumbersome to keep your code consistent with the
- style, even with align.el or plugins like yasnippet.
-
- gnome-c-style is an Emacs minor mode intended to help editing C
- source code in that style. It mainly provides two features: text
- alignment and snippet insersion.
+ gnome-c-style is an Emacs minor mode for editing C source code in [GNOME C coding style](https://developer.gnome.org/programming-guidelines/stable/c-coding-style.html.en). In particular, it is useful to properly line-up [function arguments](https://developer.gnome.org/programming-guidelines/stable/c-coding-style.html.en#functions) and [function declarations in header files](https://developer.gnome.org/programming-guidelines/stable/c-coding-style.html.en#functions).
