Well, to customize it, like any other aspect of Emacs, implies a measure of personal choice that's not always required. I find "EOF" boring, personally, so I like to change it. The change would not affect any existing code, it's just a defcustom instead of a defvar. I can set it manually, of course, so I don't require it for myself. I just thought others might like to customize it as well to make sh-mode a little more fun. Ted
