Show undefined variable errors in Django templates?

Question

How can I ask Django to tell me when it encounters, for example, an undefined variable error while it\'s rendering templates?

I\'ve tried the obvious DEBUG = T

Read up on how invalid variable are handled in templates. Basically, just set TEMPLATE_STRING_IF_INVALID to something in your settings.py.

TEMPLATE_STRING_IF_INVALID = "He's dead Jim! [%s]"
