 <h4 class="subsection">The Outside Context</h4> <p>Edebug tries to be transparent to the program you are debugging, but it does not succeed completely. Edebug also tries to be transparent when you evaluate expressions with <kbd>e</kbd> or with the evaluation list buffer, by temporarily restoring the outside context. This section explains precisely what context Edebug restores, and how Edebug fails to be completely transparent. </p> <table class="menu" border="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr>
