M-x describe-function RET buffer-string RET.

,---- [It should read]
| buffer-substring-no-properties is a built-in function in `C source code'.
| (buffer-substring-no-properties start end)
| 
| Return the characters of part of the buffer, without the text properties.
| The two arguments start and end are character positions;
| they can be in either order.

Also in case of error please set `debug-on-error` to t and send the
