From: Stefan Monnier <monnier <at> IRO.UMontreal.CA> To: 7825 <at> debbugs.gnu.org Subject: bug#7825: Cannot return from the debugger Date: Tue, 11 Jan 2011 16:32:00 -0500
Package: Emacs Version: 24.0.50 The limitation that we "Cannot return from the debugger in an error", is a bug: we should be able to continue (i.e. run the code of the corresponding error handler), just as if the debugger had not been invoked.
