Topic: Buffer 2

Buffers. I decided the last post still wasn't clear enough. Then, decided to check out XEmacs web site and GNU's documentation on it.

You can find the extensive manuals, from easy to advanced, here.
XEmacs.Org Docs

The term "buffer" is really sort of over-used. It really just means.

1. An area in a window.
2. An active editing view to a file.
3. Plus, there are buffers for temporary regions, system areas (or information on XEmacs for XEmacs) (Such as, the file list loaded.)
4. Plus, several of the File Menu commands really pertain to buffers. (Again a file being handled inside a buffer.)

* This must be the base definition? When using XEmacs a file is simply handled inside a buffer, for whatever purposes we might need.
