Alternatively, I have just discovered that emacs 23 supports directory
local variables:

http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/elisp/html_node/Directory-Local-Variables.html

much like jde project files.  It sounds like the settings could be put
in .dir-locals.el (the downside is that it wouldn't work for emacs22
people, and is possibly less obvious than the per-file settings).

Cheers,
Len.
