Is not this a bit of a contradiction? I would not say that the semantic is really clear. I wrote: If you want Y to be your Custom file, write: (setq custom-file "Y") (load custom-file) Note: _If_ you want Y to be your Custom file, write: Who knows what somebody just doing `M-: (setq custom-file "Y")' is actually trying to do? Whether it is going to have any effect or not depends on whether any option is still going to be saved in Custom or not. If you set custom-file through Custom, it is going to have an effect in a reliable way. (Custom is going to write your current saved Customizations into that file, but it is not going to read anything from that file.) Where is the contradiction?
