Debugging LISP with (trace) and (debug) funcitons?

Could anybody tell me where to find documentation for the (trace) and (debug) functions? They were referenced by Torsten Moses in this thread: http://www.bricscad.com/common/support/forumthread.jsp?id=9831

More generally, I am debugging LISP and would be interested to know of any other tools that might exist.

Thanks!

    BC Help is still incomplete. For information on trace and debug:

    ReleaseNotes.htm:
    Version 10.3.14
    LISP - improved error handler control:
    - (vl-bt-on) enables "error callstack backtrace"
    - (vl-bt-off) disables "error callstack backtrace"
    - (vl-bt [n]) outputs the "error callstack backtrace" to the commandline, regardless of on/off status.
    - (setq bcad$disable-extended-error nil) enables error location message
    - (setq bcad$disable-extended-error t) disables error location message
