+// This is an example program that demonstrates an advanced use of the Sentry

+// report to Sentry filtering specific frames from the stack trace and then
+// letting the program crash as usual.
+//
+// Try it by running:
+//
+//  go run main.go
+//
+// To actually report events to Sentry, set the DSN either by editing the
+// appropriate line below or setting the environment variable SENTRY_DSN to
+// match the DSN of your Sentry project.
