Where? I just read style(9), I can only find
When declaring variables in functions declare them sorted by size, then
in alphabetical order; multiple ones per line are okay. Declaring func-
tions inside functions is not recommendable, since their linkage scope is
always global. If a line overflows reuse the type keyword.
I also note that the "sorted by size" doesn't indicate whether
smallest comes first or last (although the example does suggest
the order).
