Mar 16, 2015 at 18:05 comment added Håkon Hægland Will this work if you don't use eval-buffer? For example, if you just press a keyboard shortcut that runs a private command that fails and opens the debugger in the *Backtrace* buffer..

Feb 7, 2015 at 23:37 comment added wasamasa With this code you'll see a line number in backtraces made by debug, you can check by visiting a faulty elisp file, doing M-x toggle-debug-on-error and M-x eval-buffer, then a backtrace with a line number at the problematic position should pop up.
Feb 7, 2015 at 21:56 comment added Jackson Ray Hamilton Thanks for your help, but I still don't understand how to get the line number. M-x debug ...? Then what do I press?
