I'm not acting as if you're lying.  I was stating that your very vague
explanations don't help, at all.

Please choose your words carefully.  Contrary to your statement, there
is no "harassment campaign" against you or anyone else here.

And that, except split across a few more messages, is precisely what I
have been trying to say to you today (specifically, about autoloads and
custom.)  Your response however is typically a complaint that I'm
calling you delusional, or harassing you, or calling you a liar, or what
not, which is again blatantly false.

Anyway, unless you're willing to provide some actual information about
the problem, I will see myself out.  I still oppose the addition of a
setup wizard that does not generate a custom-set-variables block to
place in the custom file.

Thanks.

I suggest you take a look at the title of your reply, if that is what
your argument is based on.

Further more, it was you who turned the discussion towards setq, and the
discussion about custom-file is an entirely separate discussion (which
was also suitably renamed) that involved Philip, Pedro and you, not me.

I was not paying attention to the "default custom file" discussion.
