  "Mode for Emacs Lisp buffers while in Edebug.

In addition to all Emacs Lisp commands (except those that modify the
buffer) there are local and global key bindings to several Edebug
specific commands.  E.g. `edebug-step-mode' is bound to \\[edebug-step-mode]
in the Edebug buffer and \\<global-map>\\[edebug-step-mode] in any buffer.

Also see bindings for the eval list buffer *edebug* in `edebug-eval-mode'.

The edebug buffer commands:
\\{edebug-mode-map}

Global commands prefixed by `edebug-global-prefix':
\\{edebug-global-map}

Options:
`edebug-setup-hook'
`edebug-all-defs'
`edebug-all-forms'
`edebug-save-windows'
`edebug-save-displayed-buffer-points'
`edebug-initial-mode'
`edebug-trace'
`edebug-test-coverage'

`edebug-print-length'
`edebug-print-level'
