\startbuffer[ABC]%
{} Braces at beginning fails with buffer
\stopbuffer
\starttext
\getbuffer[ABC]
\stoptext
Error message:
! File ended while scanning use of \dododowithbuffer.
<inserted text>
\par
Remove the {}'s at the beginning and all is well.
The culprit however is the % in the first line; remove and the braces
do no harm.
I suspect that a missed newline is the cause. If that cannot be
remedied, I advise adding a warning in the manual.

the buffer content is "all lines between startbuffer and stopbuffer" and
both commands hav eto be on a line of their own with startbuffer having
an optional name
buffers are special in the sense that the input stream is parsed in a
special way
