1147 The default values for the first two of these variables are 12 and 4 | |
1148 respectively, which means that `eval-expression' now prints at most | |
1149 the first 12 members of a list and at most 4 nesting levels deep (if | |
1150 the list is longer or deeper than that, an ellipsis `...' is | |
1151 printed). | |
1152 | |
1153 The default value of eval-expression-debug-on-error is t, so any error | |
1154 during evaluation produces a backtrace. | |
