Force Spell Check on Print command

[kzD1219]

Is there a lisp out there that when print/plot or print is chosen from the pull down menu that spell checker will run first before the print dialog box opens?  A long time ago at another company we had it, but don't know if it was a lisp or somehow they redefined the print command.

If you only want to use the a pulldown or button to activate PLOT and your ask, why not just add the SPELL command to the start of the menu macro under that button or pulldown menu? CUI command is used to menu editing.

But SPELL command still requires user input: do you want to try to automate the selection of "everything" too?

I was just wondering if there was something out there that might have been already developed.  Just remember what I used to use, if we tried to print the annoying spell checker dialog box came up first and you had to run through it before the print dialog box popped up.  But yes, we could all just use spell and that may be what it comes down to, making sure everyone runs through it at least once.

The only suggestion I would make is maybe have a defun called Splot and as suggested run Spell 1st then run plot. That way plot still works though you can type .plot to overide.

If you use consistent title blocks, we used 99% of the time one title block, then you can call the plot as lisp so just watch the layouts etc come out. If you use a pop menu the save splot.lsp in menu ^c^C(load "splot") splot
