You can use mc^2 with a simple snippet like this: ui.Editbox.bind("<<load>>", function(edt) if edt.filename and edt.filename:find "/projects/lambda/" then ui.Editbox.options.tab_size = 4 ui.Editbox.options.expand_tabs = true else ui.Editbox.options.tab_size = 8 ui.Editbox.options.expand_tabs = false end end) (For documentation, see [1]) (The 'else' case is needed because in MC the editor options are global, not local to each edit buffer.) mc^2 also comes with a modeline module (if you decide to use it just remember to require() it before the snippet above so it doesn't overwrite your settings).
