Which function is used to insert a string, specified by its variable
name, into a buffer?

Also, function is used to insert a list, specified by its variable name,
into a buffer?


Thanks much.

Obviously: ngej-ghoD    (ngej-ghoD string)

Not obvious enough?  Then try: insert   (insert string)

insert:
(insert string-variable)

A list of what?  If it's a list of strings:
(apply 'insert list-of-strings)
