AUTOLISP 'new kid on the block'

[Anonymous]

Does anyone out there know the programming language 'Lisp'
I am very new to this.
I have wrote a routine that will ask the user for a room name, pick the area to calculate, pick a point to start the text and hey presto, the room name and area are there.

However, if the room name is two words like living Room, it only allows you to do the first word.

Any ideas what code I need to enter?

Thanks.

We all jump the gun every now and then, but if you HAD read it all you would of seen that Joe did answer the question. Murph "ffejgreb" wrote in message news:4074275c$1_3@newsprd01... > You're right.

I saw that he did, along with a few others. That was part of my reaction.

True, but Dean spends most of his time in the other NG's not in customization. It took me a while to figure out what his replies were meant to achieve as well. I'm a tad slow and overly emotional I guess. Damn that Phil Donohue!

Jo, thanks for your input on my 'simple' question. I am only a few days in to lisp.
I see that your e-mail address is in Hawaii and we share the same surname.

I didn't know the Burke name spread in to the Pacific Ocean?
Regards

Jim, You're welcome. Sorry my lame attempt at humor caused such a stink. The wording of your original message struck me as funny. Kinda like going to a baseball game and asking if anyone knows the rules. 🙂 << note I've lived in Hawaii for fifteen years. Originally from the Philadelphia suburbs. You'll find lots of helpful people here. Welcome to the NG.

No need for you to apologize. I'm the one who is sorry. Jeff

Jeff, I totally understand your reaction. And I still think it was all my fault. BTW, thank you for including me among the folks you listed. I'm not sure I deserve it, but I appreciate the thought.
