Ksnip follows the KDELibs (see https://community.kde.org/Policies/Kdelibs_Coding_Style)
coding style, with a few exceptions:

    1. The access modifier ordering is: public, public slots, signals,
       protected, protected slots, private, private slots. Member variables
       come at beginning, before all member functions. This is not strictly
       enforced, but is a good rule to follow.

    2. Headers are cumulative, i.e., all headers that a particular class
       requires, are #include-ed in the class's header file, not the .cpp
       code file. The .cpp code file includes only one header, which is
       its own .h file. E.g., a class Foo, defined in Foo.h, will have its
       code in Foo.cpp, and Foo.cpp will #include only a single header
       Foo.h

    3. Member variables follow the format mCamelCase, and not m_camelCase
       which is more common throughout the rest of the KDE Applications

    4. Source files are mixed case, named the same as the class they
       contain. i.e., SomeClass will be defined in SomeClass.cpp, not
       someclass.cpp

    5. Function parameters, if classes, should be past as const references, if
       basic types like bool, int, float, enum, can be passed by value. Functions
       that do not change anything on the class (like getters), should be const.
