You suggest semi-automatically saving the generated code in the init file, instead of the user copying it there manually? Then I have two comments: . IME users don't particularly like commands writing into their files . the difference between these two patterns is in this case barely perceptible (And yes, it has to be the init file, because if users dislike us writing into the init file, they dislike us writing to additional files even more.) Bottom line: sounds like a tempest in a teapot. Especially since the two users who requested this already said they were satisfied.
