When you know that the file necessarily corresponds to a buffer and you want to do something to the buffer rather than to the file, then you really should pass the buffer, not the file name. > However since the code is part of find-file-hook, I'll pass the > buffer-name to avoid the possibility of some kind of recursion. Better pass the *buffer* rather than the *buffer name*.
