[Chicken-hackers] [PATH] Add an Emacs dir-locals file to enforce project style

[Peter Bex]

Hi all,

I find it increasingly annoying to run M-x tabify on code I write in
CHICKEN, and as more people contribute code it'll become more of a
mess of tabs versus spaces.

I do *not* want a bikeshed discussion about tabs versus spaces!  I'm
just interested in maintaining consistency across the codebase.  Since
the majority of us are using Emacs, here's a .dir-locals.el file to
enforce our project's settings.

It's pretty minimal yet, and it would be great if people could extend
this to enforce more conventions we use in CHICKEN.  For example, what
C base indentation style should we pick?  I'm using
(setq c-default-style "bsd") in my own .emacs file, but I'm not sure
about all the settings that implies, exactly, and whether it matches
the CHICKEN conventions.

Cheers,
Peter
