Miscellaneous Edebug Commands
-----------------------------

   Some miscellaneous Edebug commands are described here.

`?'
     Display the help message for Edebug (`edebug-help').

`C-]'
     Abort one level back to the previous command level
     (`abort-recursive-edit').

`q'
     Return to the top level editor command loop (`top-level').  This
     exits all recursive editing levels, including all levels of Edebug
     activity.  However, instrumented code protected with
     `unwind-protect' or `condition-case' forms may resume debugging.

`Q'
     Like `q', but don't stop even for protected code
     (`top-level-nonstop').

`r'
     Redisplay the most recently known expression result in the echo
     area (`edebug-previous-result').

`d'
     Display a backtrace, excluding Edebug's own functions for clarity
     (`edebug-backtrace').

     You cannot use debugger commands in the backtrace buffer in Edebug
     as you would in the standard debugger.

     The backtrace buffer is killed automatically when you continue
     execution.

   You can invoke commands from Edebug that activate Edebug again
recursively.  Whenever Edebug is active, you can quit to the top level
with `q' or abort one recursive edit level with `C-]'.  You can display
a backtrace of all the pending evaluations with `d'.
