+ <h2 class="chapter">Buffers</h2>  <p>A <em>buffer</em> is a Lisp object containing text to be edited. Buffers are used to hold the contents of files that are being visited; there may also be buffers that are not visiting files. While several buffers may exist at one time, only one buffer is designated the <em>current buffer</em> at any time. Most editing commands act on the contents of the current buffer. Each buffer, including the current buffer, may or may not be displayed in any windows. </p> <table class="menu" border="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr>
