	Yes, MicroEMACS 3.9 has a hook which executes whatever function
is bound to the illegal keystroke M-FNR whenever a file is read. This is
bound to a macro in the standard emacs.rc file which parses the
extension. This could be made to automatically perform any special
"Language" mode.

	Warning however... the illegal keystroke method of generating
"Hooks" (word wrap and file read right now) will be giving way to
environment variables holding the name of functions to invoke at hook
time in future releases.
