If the user saves the value of `custom-file' through Custom and all we do is write a setq into .emacs, should we set `saved-value' to the new value and set all the other properties that Custom sets when the user saves a value for an option through Custom. That was my question. As I pointed out earlier, I believe that both answers to that question are unsatisfactory. But I do not believe that this question is still relevant. The discussion seems to have taken a completely different turn. Sincerely, Luc.
