Subject: Re: Change `customize-save-variable' to work under "emacs -Q"?
Date: Mon, 11 Jul 2011 18:07:23 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <89EDBDA5-07F5-471D-A8A7-9A4E0BFB65B1@mit.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CAC=50j9eV1j_CsdCzx3CRCefS90dZd80Y6tvxDhJx-+hVXq7tA@mail.gmail.com>
Since we sometimes want custom to set variables in spite of -Q (for reproducing bugs, which I'll guess is probably the most common use of -Q) and sometimes don't want that, can we make it a switch?
I was hoping to suggest a patch, but setting debug-on-entry for customize-save-variables and running Emacs -Q under MacOSX caused a crash, and I don't have the attention right now to hunt it down *and* suggest a patch. Customize itself seems to check 'init-file and offers different text if it's not set; is that sufficient for either asking something like ``Can't save setting; set for session anyway?''?
*Chad
P.S. In case someone cares about the crash, I've attached the system's dump; it might just be an artifact of the way I ran Emacs -Q. If I can reproduce it, I'll file a bug/patch.
