Subject: How to save custom variable programmatically?
Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2020 10:51:07 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <X6pGa6HQ60NZK6Ne@protected.rcdrun.com> (raw)

I would like to use custom variables in such way to ask user
pragmatically, not through customize interface, to change a
variable. This could be for example user's location.

Upon changing it, I would like programatically to save it for future.

Should I use below function? Or maybe something else is recommended?

(defun customize-save-variable (variable value &optional comment)

  This way it is not working:
  
(require 'cus-edit)
(customize-save hyperscope-default-server "localhost")

Any good way?
