That would be very misleading. There are two ways a user can set an
option permanently: through Custom and by writing code in his init
file.
Your statement is confusing. Custom automatically writes code that is
saved in an init file. It is a code generating tool that saves in a
particular place.
You have set this %c and saved it in your init file.
This wording is correct. In this case, you did not write the code
yourself, but had a library do it. You set %c and saved it in your
init file.
Richard's suggestion for saving some characters makes sense. His
wording is both accurate and good.
