I know that, but the name of the buffer is incomplete.  It ends on "...-"
which means a word is missing, and it begins on "*" and does not end on
"*".

For me, this points to a missing a word.  If we are lucky, it does not
cause any harm.  Still, it is kinda odd to have it stay that way.

Thank you for your improvements Visuwesh :-) .  Time for you to enjoy
and celebrate.  Have a glass for me :-))) .
