I used the mouse to click the button labelled "Save for Future Sessions". "C-h k" followed by a click on that button shows documentation for widget-button-click -- not very helpful. C-h k RET with point on the button just shows docs for Custom-newline -- also not very helpful. Finally I figured out that M-x describe-char followed by middle-clicking on 'push-button', followed by left-clicking the '[show]' text next to :action, shows: #[(widget &optional event) "\300 \207" [Custom-save] 1] I found this sequence extremely obscure. Apparently Custom-save calls custom-save-all. But, when I evalled (custom-save-all) by hand, it only asked once. Tom
