backing out of debugger
Hi, Let's say I made a lot of mistakes. I look at my repl and see: scheme@(guile-user) [10]> Any way to back out to scheme@(guile-user)> without typing ,q ten times? Thanks Mortimer

I don't know if there is a command for that, but maybe pressing Ctrl+D several times is easier than typing ,q several times?
Re: backing out of debugger
Thanks Luis. What about in emacs/geiser where Ctrl-D won't work?

Guile tells you :) scheme@(guile-user)> foo ;;; :7:0: warning: possibly unbound variable `foo' ice-9/boot-9.scm:1685:16: In procedure raise-exception: Unbound variable: foo Entering a new prompt. Type `,bt' for a backtrace or `,q' to continue. This [1] thingy coming next is the new prompt. So typing ,q gets me out of it: scheme@(guile-user) [1]> ,q scheme@(guile-user)> I'm not deep into that, but as far as I understand, the job of this prompt is to keep information around about what went wrong, so you can inspect it (e.g. with ,bt).

Note that geiser-repl-exit already takes a prefix argument, but will simply kill the process instead of exiting N repl. -- Olivier Dion Polymtl
