I think this is what you are looking for.

- Open the menu, BBEdit: Preferences.

- There is a languages tab in the left column (the icon looks like hands on a 
typewriter).

- The last section on the panel is "Language-specific settings:”

- Add the language (file type) you want specific settings for and have at it.

It isn’t exhaustive, you can’t turn tab-stops on & off for instance. 😖
But I have different color schemes and display settings set up for Shell 
Worksheets, Unix man pages... a bunch of stuff.


I hope that is what you are looking for,
