| | I'm just wondering whether I can create an invisible buffer, or
| | something similar? That is one which does not appear in the buffer
| | menu list, and you can't accidentally change to. 
| | 
| | The reason for this is that I have use this little hack....
| 
| I did not look into your hack but buffer names which start with " *"
| (note the space) do not appear in the buffer menu list, and are not
| presented as visible choices for tab completion after C-x C-b unless
| you actually type the space before the tab.

The * does not matter, it seems sufficient that the buffer name start
with a space.
