There are no explicit coding styles no and there are probably quite a
few intermingled in the internals.
Most of it is just trying to continue with the style Werner used initially.
The example you bring up with spaces before the last brace that is
actually something I am not particularily fond of myself and I often
remove the spaces since I don't find it particularily readable.

As for using under_scores, I would prefer keeping to camelCase but
chosing between noCode and lots_of_code, I will go for the latter ;)
