 17 Debugging
 ************
 
 GNU Emacs has two debuggers, ‘debug’ and ‘edebug’.  The first is built
 into the internals of Emacs and is always with you; the second requires
 that you instrument a function before you can use it.
 
    Both debuggers are described extensively in Debugging Lisp
 Programs (elisp)Debugging.  In this chapter, I will walk through a
 short example of each.
