How to find if on accoreconsole or GUI

[kazfukuoka]

Hi Community,

I want to do initialization at startup only if AutoCAD
is started with GUI, not for accoreconsole.

For example, in pseudo code,
(if (not ACCORECONSOLE) (command "FileDia" "1"))

Is there any way to do this?

ok, not tested..but I know accoreconsole does not support (layoutlist) so you can try this:

(if (not (layoutlist))(princ"accore")(princ"gui"))

Thanks. But on accoreconsole, it goes as follows.

Command: (if (not (layoutlist))(princ"accore")(princ"gui"))
; error: no function definition: LAYOUTLIST

Probably we need something like (ifdef layoutlist).

how about this which would return nil if the function does NOT exists which means you're running accoreconsole:

(member (type layoutlist) '(subr usubr exrxsubr))

[paullimapa · Accepted solution]

or would accoreconsole allow this:

(if layoutlist (princ"gui")(princ"accore"))

Thank you, it works beautifully.
