Hi all, AUCTeX doesn't have a .dir-locals.el in the development tree. There are not many contributors, but I think it makes sense to have one. Is there a reason we don't have it? Otherwise, I suggest to install one like this which is mostly taken from Emacs[1]:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- ;;; Directory Local Variables ;;; For more information see (info "(emacs) Directory Variables") ((nil . ((bug-reference-url-format . "https://debbugs.gnu.org/%s";) (fill-column . 70) (sentence-end-double-space . t) (tab-width . 8))) (change-log-mode . ((mode . bug-reference) (add-log-time-zone-rule . t) (fill-column . 74))) (emacs-lisp-mode . ((mode . bug-reference-prog) (electric-quote-comment . nil) (electric-quote-string . nil) (indent-tabs-mode . nil))) (texinfo-mxode . ((mode . bug-reference-prog) (electric-quote-comment . nil) (electric-quote-string . nil) (fill-column . 74)))) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- I think the biggest change is to turn off `indent-tabs-mode' in `emacs-lisp-mode'. Any comments welcome. Best, Arash Footnotes: [1] http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/tree/.dir-locals.el
