I'm not sure anymore if this is a good idea anyway, because (doc of
`diary-file'): "Diary files can contain directives to include the
contents of other files; for details, see the documentation for the
variable `diary-list-entries-hook'".
No magic is able to ensure that all of these files are always opened
with the right mode.
Dunno. When the diary-file is opened with `diary-show-all-entries', the
mode is already changed to diary-mode. We could automatically add a
file local variable when Emacs creates the (main) diary file for the
user.
An alternative approach: we change the name of the diary-file to .diary
and associate the suffix ".diary" with diary-mode. When the user then
names his/her included diary files like "holidays.diary" and
"work.diary", the mode would be enabled for these files, too.
Michael.
