RE: inserting the scratch buffer

[Drew Adams]

     > how do I insert the scratch buffer at point.

"how do I": C-h a        (`apropos-command')
"insert":   C-h a insert (then search for "buffer")
"buffer":   C-h a buffer (then search for "insert")

Command found: `insert-buffer'

Will it help? `C-h f insert-buffer':
  "Insert after point the contents of BUFFER." - sounds promising...

Result: M-x insert-buffer *scratch*

Really, it's not so hard to find things out yourself, with Emacs. It doesn't
get any easier than this.

Your friends are `apropos-command', `apropos' (... try `M-x apropos
apropos'), the online help (C-h i Emacs), C-h f, C-h v, C-h m, EmacsWiki
(http://www.emacswiki.org), and ... two more FREE questions to
help-gnu-emacs - choose wisely ;-).
