Re: enriched-mode and switching major modes.

[Richard Stallman]

      `enriched-mode' sets
    buffer-local values for these variables, but when the major mode is
    set by `after-find-file', these variables are killed.

It sounds like enriched-mode is called too early.
What is the command that you give?

    One solution is to make Enriched mode into a major mode.  It already
    very much "feels" like one.

    The other solution would be to make all variables that Enriched mode
    needs to set permanent locals.  For `use-hard-newlines' we already
    decided that there was no problem. 

The former is acceptable, but not really nice.  The latter is not
acceptable at all.  So I am looking for some other solution.
