AutoLISP help

[Anonymous]

Hello All.

I come to you, cap in hand begging basically. I'm an IT support guy and one of our customers uses AutoCAD.

The one user I am dealing with had some custom commands wherein they would type CX, CY, CZ and this would perform UCS X 90 command and then the relevant command for the other axis. Somehow these commands were deleted, and it seems the only way to put them back is to program them back in using AutoLISP.

So my plea is, could anyone tell me how I can just program this command back in, i've followed the introduction to AutoLISP tutorials but these are from a very broad approach and I don't want to have to learn an entire new programming language just to close one ticket.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

you can add the first 3 lines of the attached file into your ACAD.LSP or load that file into AutoCAD.

(defun C:CX()(command "_UCS" "_X" "90"))
(defun C:CY()(command "_UCS" "_Y" "90"))
(defun C:CZ()(command "_UCS" "_Z" "90"))
(print "Commands CX, CY, CZ loaded")
(prin1)

Alfred you are a star! Thank you very much

Alfred's method can be expanded for those
other command aliases that require one of the
options to be selected. Something the PGP
cannot do.

The list can be as long as one's imagination.

I personally like S and ST.
STRETCH "CR" ~ crossing (stretch window is the same as MOVE)
STRETCH "CP" ~ crossing polygon (fence)

Just make sure there are no conflicts to the
PGP or any other "utility" file.

This may be off the topic.

I haven't seen an IT guy like you before.

Appreciated what you are willing to do.

You are a nice guy.

Cheers.
