Forget it I figured it out .........
This is how you do the default layout
<Setting name="DefaultLayout" value="yourFile.cfm" />
This is how you do a folder layout
<Setting name="FolderLayouts.theFolderValue" value="yourFile.cfm" />
And like they say in the docs just do a dump on the follwing and you
will see how you can override.
controller.getConfigSettings()
