Every time I customise a new variable and save it, all my old comments disappear. I have tried commenting like this, ;; comments '(some-var value) '(some-var value) ; comments Neither of them survive after customising a new variable. Any thoughts? -- Suvayu Open source is the future. It sets us free.
