With VIM or Emacs I can put comments in the file that will be VIM’s settings for that file:

 /*  * Local Variables:       * mode: C  * c-basic-offset: 4  * c-indentation-style: linux  * indent-tabs-mode: nil  * default-tab-width: 8  * fill-column: 125  * End:  *  * vim: et:sw=4:ts=8:si:cindent:cino=\:0,g0,(0:  */  

Can the same be done with Nedit?

    The short answer is, sadly, no.

    The longer answer is (as I’m sure you’re aware) yes if you wrap the call to nedit in a shell script. The script would need to look at the head of the file you’re trying to open for information concerning settings. You could then spit this information out to a file and use the ‘–import’ option to load those settings into nedit.

    Hope this helps a little.
