Feature request: inline options about micro HOT 4 OPEN

Is the approach of Global and local settings not sufficient? The same works for whole directories too. 😉

hmm.. I didn't get it at the first reading of docs..

Does it work for all options? For example is it allowed to do something like this?
settings.json:

{
    "lsp.autocompleteDetails": true,
    "lsp.formatOnSave": false,
    "lsp.server": "go=gopls,php=intelephense --stdio",
    "/home/user/projects/name/huge.php": {
        "lsp.server": ""
    }
}

(disable lsp for one file)

Note that what is actually matched against the "/home/user/projects/name/huge.php" key in your settings is the relative path to the file, as opposed to the absolute path. In this specific case, if you were in the "/home/user/projects/name" folder and typed micro huge.php at the command line, micro would open, but your settings would not be applied. Instead, you can supply the full path (micro /home/user/projects/name/huge.php), and then your settings would be applied.

If your settings were instead (off the top of my head):

{
    "lsp.autocompleteDetails": true,
    "lsp.formatOnSave": false,
    "lsp.server": "go=gopls,php=intelephense --stdio",
    "*/huge.php": {
        "lsp.server": ""
    }
}

Then any file named huge.php would have the lsp.server setting set to "".

On the topic of inline options being specified inside of files, you could totally make a plugin that does this.

Thank you! Yeah, you are right: i faced with this weird issue - sometime the local settings were not applied, with your hints about paths puzzle is solved. I'll test this with more generic path (like you proposed).

hm... that's interesting, I'm not really familiar with Lua, but I really like the micro-editor, want to switch to it completely from emacs. But I'm used to using dired, magit and other emacs stuff, maybe this will encourage me to learn Lua and create plugins that will cover the lack of such functionality.
