" REVISION	DATE		REMARKS
"   1.028.006	16-Nov-2016	FIX: Correct delegation in
"				ingo#buffer#temp#Execute(); wrong recursive call
"				was used (after 1.027).
"				ENH: Add optional a:isSilent argument to
"				ingo#buffer#temp#Execute().
"   1.027.005	20-Aug-2016	Add ingo#buffer#temp#ExecuteWithText() and
"				ingo#buffer#temp#CallWithText() variants that
"				pre-initialize the buffer (a common use case).
"   1.025.004	29-Jul-2016	FIX: Temporarily reset 'switchbuf' in
"				ingo#buffer#temp#Execute(), to avoid that
"				"usetab" switched to another tab page.
"   1.023.003	07-Nov-2014	ENH: Add optional a:isReturnAsList flag to
"				ingo#buffer#temp#Execute() and
"				ingo#buffer#temp#Call().
"   1.013.002	05-Sep-2013	Name the temp buffer for
"				ingo#buffer#temp#Execute() and re-use previous
"				instances to avoid increasing the buffer numbers
"				and output of :ls!.

"* PURPOSE:
"   Invoke an Ex command in an empty temporary scratch buffer and return the
"   contents of the buffer after the execution.
"* ASSUMPTIONS / PRECONDITIONS:
"   - a:command should have no side effects to the buffer (other than changing
"     its contents), as it will be reused on subsequent invocations. If you
"     change any buffer-local option, also undo the change!
"* EFFECTS / POSTCONDITIONS:
"   None.
"* INPUTS:
"   a:command	Ex command to be invoked.
"   a:isIgnoreOutput	Flag whether to skip capture of the scratch buffer
"			contents and just execute a:command for its side
"			effects.
"   a:isReturnAsList	Flag whether to return the contents as a List of lines.
"   a:isSilent          Flag whether a:command is executed silently (default:
"			true).
"* RETURN VALUES:
"   Contents of the buffer, by default as one newline-delimited string, with
"   a:isReturnAsList as a List, like getline() does.
