joe (editor) global vs. local options on the command line?

joe (Joe's Own Editor) manual outlines the command syntax like so: joe [global-options] [ [local-options] filename ]... My question is, how do I demarcate **global-options** from **local-options**? An example: joe --wordwrap -nobackup file1 file2 file3 Even though I placed --wordwrap (to turn wordwrap off), and -nobackup (to turn backup file creation off), they only apply to the first file. The subsequent files, *file2* and *file3*, still will have word wrap on, and backup files will be created for them if edited and saved. Of course I could do this: joe --wordwrap -nobackup file1 --wordwrap -nobackup file2 --wordwrap -nobackup file3 .. but that is cumbersome, and would imply there wouldn't be **global-options** at all. I could also edit /etc/joe/joerc and /etc/joe/ftyperc (or copy them to the user's home dir, and make the overriding edits there) to turn word wrap and backups off for all files, but on systems where I'm only visiting (and that might have, say, a shared **/home/ubuntu** user/homedir, say, rather than individual user accounts/homedirs), I would rather not make permanent changes to the system tools that other users might use, yet it would be handy to be able to enter the editor args on the command line (perhaps even via a keyboard macro) without having to repeat the args for each file. So is there a way to have **global-options** in joe on the command line for parameters that can be also used as **local-options**? ("Why don't you use Vi[m] or Emacs instead?" Because I've never found vi[m] intuitive, I have forgotten the Emacs chords which I had mastered in the 90's, and joe does the job nicely, so why not? :-)
