Re: backing out of debugger

Thanks Matt.
I wrote a Guile utility function and attached to a button using e-lisp:

----Guile-----------------------------------------------------------
(define (back-out repl-stack )
  (if (null? (cdr repl-stack))
      (throw 'quit)
      (begin
(throw 'quit)
(back-out (cdr repl-stack)))))
----end guile-------------------------------------------------------

----Emacs Lisp---------------------------------------------------
(defun insert-back-out()
  (interactive)
  (insert "(back-out (fluid-ref *repl-stack*))"))

(global-set-key (kbd "<f4>") 'insert-back-out)
---end-elisp------------------------------------------------------

If I am at scheme@(guile-user) [3]> I must press the button three times.
So doesn't quite work as expected. Seems like only one (throw 'quit) can be
executed per prompt? Not sure what the problem is.
