RTFM. It's been a feature of rn since rn came out. It's the -S
option. For simplicity, set RNINIT to all the rn options you want
(or to the name of a file which cotains the options).

It's always been documented. The rn documentation is rather long, but
it's worth reading right through once you've used rn for a while.
