Before we get started, it’s a good idea to understand AutoLISP. AutoLISP is a very powerful language that has been around for a long time and was designed to allow users to write custom commands that extend the capabilities of AutoCAD. AutoLISP programs are saved as .lsp files. While ther...
To have your startup LISP file load every time a drawing is open is also very simple. All you have to do is type CUI in the command line. Next, find the LISP Files category in the Customization in All Files section of the CUI dialog box, right-click on it, and choose Load Lisp f...
which will be even more helpful. They’ll usually be in a single file with the extension of .lsp, so you’ll need to know how to load them and what to do to make them run.
As noted, the reason why copying to the clipboard failed in AutoCAD may also be related to drawing file incompatibility. To fix this error, you can try to save the drawing as a DWG file, which is the most common file format of AutoCAD. This action essentially creates a completely new fil...

In the ACADDOC.lsp, add a line similar to this: (load"C:\\MyFolder\\MyLISP.lsp""MyLISP Failed to Load") If the LISP file does not reside in the AutoCAD Support Path, a full filepath is needed so that the LISP file may be located; in this case, be sure to usedouble backslashes...

Okay, so now we've got a fairly simple version of LISP. Its interpreter is only three hundred lines of Mathematica code, and it's less than a thousand lines C and Java. So let's use it!doi:10.1007/978-1-4471-0307-3_3Gregory J. Chaitin...
By default, plug-ins are automatically registered with AutoCAD and when a new plug-in is installed during the current session. The load behavior for plug-ins is controlled with the APPAUTOLOAD system variable. When APPAUTOLOAD is set to 0, no plug-ins are loaded unless the APPAUTOLOADER comm...
Yes, I too would like AutoCAD to offset and join the ends of a line. I would also like AutoCAD to have coffee ready for me when I arrive at work in the morning. Unfortunately, neither of those wishes are likely to come true so in their absence, I would use either the STRETCH ...
