Go on give us a clue...

What buffer?
What sort of error message?
What operating system?
What version of povray?

I've not seen this in windows, but if you explain what you're doing and 
what you're trying to do, there are many that would be glad to help.

In windows XP pov 3.6, I just click on the big green "run" button and it 
renders the file that I can currently see in the editor.

OK, as often as not this is an include file so it doesn't render (and 
may even cause pov to quit*), but if I've got a valid scene file in view 
then it renders. I'd actually quite like a "run last" button that ran 
the last .pov file I'd run instead of the .inc I'm currently editing.

*I keep meaning to see if this still happens in 3.7b11 and then try to 
get a small example of this buglet, but in some ways I'd rather the 
developers concentrated on finishing 3.7 than worried too much about 
making it completely user error proof.
