18.2.14.1 Checking Whether to Stop

Whenever Edebug is entered, it needs to save and restore certain data before even deciding whether to make trace information or stop the program.

• max-lisp-eval-depth and max-specpdl-size are both incremented once to reduce Edebug's impact on the stack. You could, however, still run out of stack space when using Edebug.

• The state of keyboard macro execution is saved and restored. While Edebug is active, executing-macro is bound to edebug-continue-kbd-macro.
