Re: Writing text to a dedicated buffer

[Christopher Dimech <dimech@gmx.com>]

I would like to write more things to the created buffer from
other functions.  Not so sure if it is good to call get-buffer-create
on the created buffer every time I want to write to it.

Is there some good scheme for writing to a user defined buffer from
various elisp files?
