One way is to add an extension to "Program" filenames, and then just use
the standard method described at ":h au". If you find that depressingly
M$-ish, then I'm forced to agree. The alternative of placing all the
files in one or a few directories, for detection by the pattern, may be
preferable.

Sadly, maddeningly, Vim's modelines only allow "set" commands, AFAICT.
That would otherwise be a delightfully elegant solution. (Though
doubtless not without security concerns, admittedly.)
