Output bold text to command line

I would like to make my custum LISP routine prompts display the command name in bold just like the built-in commands. I can't seem to find an answer online.

 

 

Thanks.

Bold ? Don't-you mean UPPERCASE ?

Are you talking about initget ?

By bold, I mean Bold 😉

 

Command: "bold command name" blah blah blah

im not sure its possible in the means one would think.

 

It behaves more like command response as opposed to output display setting. I say this because its not echoed into the command history. 

if you type 'line' you will see 'line' and then the prompt with your input sans the bolded text. In other words it acts just like a user lisp. THe displayu you are seeing is not part of the interaction even though looks like its inline with the other text. My guess is that the bolded "line" display is AutoCAD recognizing that the user input is part of its internal commands and not a part of the strings going through the console.

I'm not aware if such request is available in LISP.

.NET, VB or another language?

 

It would be nice though...

 

???

That's what I'm saying. It would give custom routines just a bit more style IMO. CADnoob had an interesting perspective on the bold text not actually being apart of the command line output.
