I had written:

> (unwind-protect
>     (progn (setq a 27)
>            (message "%d" (+ a 19)))
>   (setq a 0))
> #+end_src

Although - I apologize - this is not what is happening: Edebug always
stops at the unwind forms.

I guess what I always do is thinking: "I said quit, why does it stop
again?" and quit again - which then explicitly skips the execution of
any unwind forms - bad for me.

So: should quitting maybe also set the mode to something like Go-nonstop
before calling `top-level' - would that behave better?


Michael.
