And since I'm here, why I can't redefine a variable with defcustom?
I mean if I do

(defcustom x 1)
then I want to change it
and I write and evaluate
(defcustom x 2)

then even if I set it to nil and the reevaluate again still it doesn't
care.
Is that normal?





AFAIK yes. It's little bit like with `defvar', but not that strictly, rather unpredictable.

Use `setq', resp. a setq afterwards to make sure the new value is taken.
