Folder specific settings

[ice-man]

An idea I got for a feature.

Windows explorer always look the the desktop.ini and you can tweak folder icon and other minor stuff for a folder by adding a desktop.ini file.

Something similar would be nice for MC. Like if MC find a mcdesktop.ini file in a folder settings in that files will override any settings you normally have.
But only as long as you are in that folder (and maybe in any subfolder to it)

It can be settings like colors, view mode, sorting , and other..
Ex.
I put a mcdesktop.ini file in a folder where I got all my picture. In the mcdesktop.ini I set that view mode should be thumbnail list mode.
it should sort files by date. (no matter what it was before). and it should set background color to blue.

Interesting idea.
Would require a bit of work to add and some investigation of what settings it should be able to controlled by the ini file..
But definitive interesting.  I add it to my list.
