Have done this to write to the working buffer.  But if there is not enough space
till the end of the buffer, continuing to call "insert-text" will not insert.

(defun insert-text (text)
  "Inserts text frem beginning of line located at cursor point."
  (interactive)

  (with-current-buffer (buffer-name)
    (goto-char (point))
    (insert text)
    (next-line)) )
