            (lambda () (setq debug-on-error t)))
  @end example
  
+ When the debugger is entered, it shows a backtrace (@pxref{Using
+ Debugger}).  If you like to see the backtrace when an error happens,
+ but you do not want to enter the debugger, you can set the variable
+ @code{stack-trace-on-error} to address@hidden
+ 
+ @defopt stack-trace-on-error
+ This variable determines whether a backtrace buffer is shown when an
+ error is signalled and not handled.  If @code{stack-trace-on-error} is
+ @code{t}, all kinds of errors display a backtrace; if it is
+ @code{nil}, none do.  If the value is a list, an error only means to
+ display a backtrace if one of its condition symbols appears in the
+ list.
+ @end defopt
