[...] Excuse me if this sounds almost philosophical, but in which situation an indirect buffer may be better that just focusing on the same (original) buffer? For example, when you are toying with potentially big modifications and don't want to replace the original? Is it like opening a parallel path to try things without worries? I know it's far from the original question, but it seems interesting to understand the possibilities. :) -- eduardo mercovich Donde se cruzan tus talentos con las necesidades del mundo, ahí está tu vocación.
