+C bindings
+----------
+
+When binding C code with ``cffi`` we have our own style guide, it's pretty
+simple.
+
+Don't name parameters:
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+    // Good
+    long f(long);
+    // Bad
+    long f(long x);
+
+Don't include stray ``void`` parameters:
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+    // Good
+    long f();
+    // Bad
+    long f(void);
+
+Wrap lines at 80 characters like so:
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+    // Pretend this went to 80 characters
+    long f(long, long,
+           int *)
