I don't know if this got purposely resent on the 6th, but I'll chime in now and say that I think this isn't a good idea at all. I think you should be able to configure your editor yourself. =) However, if you *must* do this (I don't think you should at all, but I'll stop short of a veto), I'd think it'd be a better idea to follow SVN's convention by adding this to all files: /* ----------------------------------------------------------------- * local variables: * eval: (load-file "../emacs-style") * end: */ Where ../emacs-style is obviously the relative path to emacs-style. This way we can change the global style by just modifying emacs-style rather than all files. And, it allows some useful macros in emacs-style. FWIW, I don't use emacs... Go vi. =) -- justin
