== Description ==
This is a slightly low-level command to grab user input and store it in a buffer. It is different from {{cmd|startbuffer|[X]..\stopbuffer}} because it allows one to use custom start and end strings, instead of \startbuffer...\stopbuffer
== Example ==
<context source=yes mode=mkiv>
\grabbufferdata[mybuffer][thisisthestart][thisistheend]
\thisisthestart
My friend, you would not tell with such high zest
To children ardent for some desparate glory,
The old Lie: Dulce et decorum est
Pro patria mori.
\thisistheend
\typebuffer[mybuffer]
</context>
