Subject: Writing text to a dedicated buffer
Date: Sun, 2 May 2021 14:48:29 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <trinity-8b3fffea-8625-415f-8193-a0d036b6f633-1619959709762@3c-app-mailcom-bs08> (raw)

I am writing text to a package dedicated buffer.  Is this the way to
go about doing that.  Or are there neater ways?


(defun gungadin-guidance-message ()
   "Displays embedded rudimentary help for gungadin.
Gungadin forms part of Behistun, a Gnu Package."

   (let ((out-buffer (get-buffer-create "*Gungadin*")))
     (with-current-buffer out-buffer
       (insert "\nGungadin\n\n")
       (insert "Gungadin is part of Behistun, a Gnu Package.\n\n")
       (insert "Gungadin 1.0 of 2017-05-02")
       (insert "\nCopyright (C) 2017 Christopher Dimech\n")
       (insert "\nAuthor: Christopher Dimech")

       (insert gungadin-guidance-message)
       (pop-to-buffer out-buffer))) )
