Can someone tell me how to get a list of Variables and Commands from the Help file?
I'm obviously too illiterate to figure it out.

Hi, I was really hoping someone would have an answer for this one. Any time something goes haywire I pull up the system variables in a drawing and then try to figure out which one sounds like it might be the one I need. Looking up each one in help takes forever. If autodesk is reading this, it would be nice to have a list with what they do in one spot rather than looking them up one at a time.
The 2012 Help file allowed you to select from a list Commands, System Variables, Modifiers, etc and get all the Commands.
I've not found this yet with the 2013 Help file.
I've tried inputting Commands or Variables into the Search parameter but it will not return a Command list.
I did have some luck with Commands for Hatches, or Lines, or whatever.
This may be how the system is set up now.

narrow the search to PRODUCT HELP
in teh Search box, type COMMAND REFERNCE (or COMMANDS).
HELP in LT2013 is a POS 😞
Helpful.
It still looks like searching Commands for (Whatever)... is the way to find them.
Agree with the acronym.

I hope this will help, it's a pdf so you have to access it from outside of autocad, but it is an interactive document
http://docs.autodesk.com/ACDMAC/2013/ENU/PDFs/PDF%20Documentation.htm
Yeah spotted that just now, this is the PDF for acad 2012 LT unfortunately nothing for 2013
http://exchange.autodesk.com/autocad/sites/default/files/autocadLT_pdf_command-ref_enu_v2.pdf
Nice.
Funny how just that type of info can't be pulled in the Help file.
You would think that an interactive list on an interactive platform like the WWW would be appropriate use of the systems in place.

And a sense of humor too!
Think the young bucks get the reference to Douglas Adams?
Have you tried clicking on the Alphabetical list of Commands or Variables yet?

That's the way I thought those Alphabet letters are supposed to work!
