:continue

Arguments: &optional restart-number

When Lisp encounters an error with restarts (including a continuable error, which gave the name to this command), it produces a list of possible restart actions, numbered from 0. Entering :continue with a restart-number corresponding to the action you want will cause computation to continue with the effects specified for the restart action. You may be prompted for more information as part of the restart action. The default value for restart-number is 0. After this command is evaluated, Lisp will leave the break level entered by the error.

See also the :error top-level command.

The minimal abbreviation of :continue is :cont.

See top-level.htm for more information on top-level commands. See debugging.htm for information on the debugger.
