changeset 60295:53b5914886cc

(custom-buffer-create-internal): Slightly reword text at top of Custom buffers. Mention there that saving an option edits the init file. Add link to Emacs manual node on `custom-file'. (custom-magic-alist): Rewrite individual State messages to use capitalized keywords. Doc fix.
