Also included (switch-to-buffer bfname) to get

(defun help-show (bfname msg)
  "Display the output of MSG"
  (when (stringp msg)
    (with-output-to-temp-buffer bfname
      (switch-to-buffer bfname)
      (print msg))))

But (switch-to-buffer bfname) replaces the buffer.  Without it, a new buffer is 
generated
underneath the current buffer.  All I want is to make the temporary buffer to 
become the 
current buffer.
