I suggest to add an interactive command `file-make-local-variable' which does this. As an interface I can imagine something similar to AUCTeX's C-c C-e command.
For those of us that do not use AUCTeX, what does that interface look like? _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
