Subject: New buffer not showing up in Emacs Buffers Menubar
Date: Mon, 23 Sep 2024 22:25:17 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <vGO5Yc74OEVXSmANeg6NOcAKXeTisxqX0dOkjk1MWRNHFW79Rc45YqlsWnm1p0adla-GL7Xrsf20wsEiiwuj9nQ-RCULozNIyEKdoUPUTk0=@protonmail.com> (raw)


Why do I need to call (switch-to-buffer dbuffer) to see the buffer made ?

Without it I never see the BFRN buffer in the Emacs Buffers Menubar.  


(defun print-alist (alist &optional bfrn)
  "Print Associateed List ALIST to the buffer BFRN."

  (let* ( (bfname (or bfrn "ALIST"))
          (dbuffer (get-buffer-create (concat "𒆳 " bfname))) )

    (with-current-buffer dbuffer
      (face-remap-add-relative 'default :background "blue")

      (insert "\n ALIST \n\n")

      (dolist (entry alist)

        (let* ( (key   (car entry) )
                (value (cdr entry) )
                (start (point)) )

          ;; Insert key
          (insert (format " ━ %-8s" key))

          ;; Colourise key
          (add-text-properties start (point)
            `(face (:foreground "green")))

          ;; Insert associated value
          (insert (format "\n    %s\n" value)) )) )

    ;; Finally, display the buffer
    (switch-to-buffer dbuffer) ))
