How do I find where the AutoCAD commands are stored?

ACADDOC.LSP where is this file located?

You can not see AutoCAD-Command definitions, except few Expresstools (not supported).

ACAD.lsp and ACADDOC.lsp is a user defined file, it isn't part of the program/install.

If you want to have one, you can create your own.

Why do you ask these questions?

I was hoping I could add new commands to it so that they could automatically load when AutoCAD is open.

Create a new Textfile, save the file as ACADDOC.LSP and save the file in one of your Supportpathes.

(You can create your own folder and add them to the Support pathes. Options/Files/Supportpathes)

But there is another option too, Start command APPLOAD and add your lsp files in the StartUp Suite!

Command APPLOAD [F1]

I just installed Autocad Electrical and it has an ACCADOC.lsp file in C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2019\Acadm. Should this file be altered or replaced?

Hi,

I am not so familiar with ACADE, but well enough to help you.

On this PC, there is no AutoDESK MECHANICAL installation??

I am surprised about about this folder, if it comes with the ACADE install.

(but as i said, i am not familiar with ACADE and i am away from my PC)

If MECHanical is also installed:

Do not edit or replace this file, i am sure this folder is not part of your ACADE Supportpathes.

Short test, start ACADE and type in:

(findfile "acaddoc.lsp")<enter>

Is the feedback = nil or a path?

NIL = Thats good, it means that your profile don't load this acaddoc.lsp.

So if it is nil, create your own personal folder and create your own ACADDOC.lsp there* (local drive with a backup on your server or a USBstick).

Don't forget to add this path to your supportpathes.

Options/Files/Searchpath for Supportfiles..

And also you have to add this path to the TrustedFolders, also in Options/Files/..

(Findfile "acaddoc.lsp") should find your file then.

*Notepad/Editor, change the extension to .lsp

Thats all. ACADDOC.lsp
