create command alias for particular commands via lisp

[Anonymous]

hi everyone,

I would like to customize my user's profile so that it is possible for autocad to execute following commands via alias such as:

reinit,    *ri

laylck,    *ll
laymcur,   *lc
layulk,    *lu
layerp,    *lp
layiso,    *li
layoff,    *lf
layon,    *lo

it would be great if you could give me some advice how I should do this, then so far I tried editing the acad.pgp but it didn't work.

thanks in advance

Did you tried it using "aliasedit"? then "Add"?

@Anonymous hi,

it is almost good except you switched format. the shortcut name should be first field and the real command is second  (look at acad.pgp how it's done)

also be aware that you may have conflicts in LI with LIST and LO with -LAYOUT standard commands

the latest appears in file overrides

Rather than using acad.pgp its just as easy to make your own defuns with lisp. You load this lisp on startup. 

(defun c:PTY ()
(setvar 'pdmode 35) ; turn on ptype
(setvar 'pdsize 0.1)
)

(defun C:47 ()(setvar "osmode" 47)) ; osnaps
