Hi,
I'm working witha code that has both fortran 77 and fortran 90 parts. All the
files, however, are named *.f, and emacs always opens them with the 'fortran
mode', which is actually more fortran77. So, I wonder if there's a way to tell
emacs to use a specific 'mode' from the command line, overriding the default
definition. Something like:
$emacs -f90 my_f90_file.f &
to force emacs to already open the file with the f90 mode.
Thanks,
Gustavo Seabra.

Why don't you let your f90 files begin with a comment:
C -*- mode: f90; coding: iso-8859-15; -*-
This line among the first few switches GNU Emacs in the right mood.

Thanks! that solved the problem, but I had to use:
!C -*- mode: f90; coding: iso-8859-15; -*-
instead. Otherwise the f90 compiler complains (the "C" on the 1st line
is not understood as a comment in F90, "!" is.

Ahemm, my FORTRAN seems to be from '66! I thought you still have to put
a C in column 6 ...
Actually Emacs reads what's between the -*- markers, the C is not part
of the syntax, as Miles Bader remarks!

Actually the comment char (a 'C' in FORTRAN 66, alternativelly a '*' in
FORTRAN 77) must appear in the *first* column. A character (any valid
character!)in column 6 indicates a continuation line.

Can you put Local Variable "cookies" into these files?

These local variables are placed at the end of the file and consist of
a few lines. Here is an example where I try to teach AUCTeX to use a
specific programme to tex that specific TeX file:
%%% Local Variables:
%%% TeX-command-default: "xelatex"
%%% End:
This comes from a shell script and uses 'mode':
# Local Variables:
# mode: shell-script
# sh-indentation: 3
# coding: iso-8859-1
# End:
And here a hook is performed on opening that file in GNU Emacs:
;; Local Variables:
;; eval: (cl-indent 'when-debugging 1)
;; End:
You see that the comments vary and can you make a lot buffer local.

Thanks. In fact I'm working on someone else's code, so I try to minimize any
changes that are not *directly* related to what I'm doing. In this sense,
Peter's suggestion worked fine, since it is only one line at the top of the
file.
