Oh no :) What you want in your .emacs is this then:

(defun abi-c-mode ()
  "C mode with adjusted defaults for use with the AbiWord sources."
  (interactive)
  (c++-mode)
  (c-set-style "K&R")
  (setq c-basic-offset 4)
  (setq indent-tabs-mode t)
  (show-paren-mode 1)
  (setq tab-width 4))

(setq auto-mode-alist
      (cons '(".*/abiword/.*\\.[ch].*$" . abi-c-mode)
            auto-mode-alist))

Adjust the path expression as necessary (i.e., where it sez
/abiword/).

Jesper

Hope you had a nice New Year - and that others will have one :)
