I don't like these: ! EDITED, but not set." "\ What about: EDITED, shown value does not take effect until you set or save it. ! SET, but not saved." "\ What about: SET for current session only. And this is quite confusing: ! STRAY, you should not see this." "\ What about: UNCUSTOMIZABLE, you should not see this. The "you should not see this" is the same sentence that occurs in: UNINITIALIZED, you should not see this. and UNKNOWN, you should not see this. All three should really not occur in an actual Custom buffer. Sincerely, Luc.
