If you set, say, auto-revert-interval, which is 5 by default, to 10 and save for future sessions, then set it to 20 for this session only, "show initial Lisp expression" will show 10, not 5. I think you mean "will show 10, not (if window-system 'x 2)". No, I was talking about auto-revert-interval, which is an actual option you can experiment with. The defcustom gives it value 5, which is a Lisp expression, an integer. Sincerely, Luc.
