How can I set a new DRC definition file in LayoutEditor, or use an existing one (for example Assura or Calibre) ?

You need to write a macro with all the DRC should be done. This is typical two lines of code per rule. An example of such a macro is shown in the manual:
[DRC Macro Example](https://layouteditor.org/layout/design-rule-checker/checking-designs#Macros)
```
// check for layer metal 1
layout->drcTool->ruleName= "Minimum Size Metal1";
layout->drcTool->minimumSize(800,6,true);
```
Importing a DRC rule definition from Assura or Calibre format is not supported.
