Thanks, I will check. Another method that I found is

(unwind-protect
    (prog1
        (message "x")
      (top-level))
  (message "a")
  (message "b"))


By the way, this code returns "Back to top level." . BAD.

x
a
b
Back to top level.

What is the definition of prog1? It should return the first argument. It seems that in this case the 1st argument is lost.

This is a BUG in prog1... I think that prog2, progn give the same bug... That is?


Does somebody else knows another methods? Let us make all of you that know a list of methods here for this problem, please...


Trying to solve a bug in the E debugger I asked myself this problem...
