+ <h3 class="section">The Lisp Debugger</h3> <p>The ordinary <em>Lisp debugger</em> provides the ability to suspend evaluation of a form. While evaluation is suspended (a state that is commonly known as a <em>break</em>), you may examine the run time stack, examine the values of local or global variables, or change those values. Since a break is a recursive edit, all the usual editing facilities of Emacs are available; you can even run programs that will enter the debugger recursively. See <a href="recursive-editing">Recursive Editing</a>. </p> <table class="menu" border="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr>
