Every time when I create new .txt file I forget add: -*- mode: outline; coding: utf-8; fill-column: 80 -*- to header. There are nearly 120 files. I can fix headers from time to time by script but this require spending own time, so ugly. I expect that Emacs already have mechanism to make this. Per project configurations which provided by standard Emacs packages. -- Any help welcome!
