The Emacs manual doesn't say it explicitly, but it sounds like file variables override any other settings, e.g., those from mode-hooks. It does say that settings which are really user preferences should not go there, for example. I guess it's open to discussion whether indentation is a user preference or a project policy. :-) Davor _______________________________________________ Rcpp-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.r-forge.r-project.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rcpp-devel
