LOAD error

[Lineabove]

Hello Forum,

If I load the attached file I will receive an:

Command: _appload LOAD on Error.lsp successfully loaded.

Command: C:0CURRENT
error: bad character read (octal): 0
Cannot invoke (command) from *error* without prior call to (*push-error-using-command*).
Converting (command) calls to (command-s) is recommended.

What I do not understand is that if I load all the files individually, there is no error.

I am stumped.

All suggestions are appreciated.

Looks like you are calling the routine as C:0Current. I believe it should be 0Current without the c:

Hi Ranjit,

Thank for your reply.

The actual line is:

(princ (load "C:/Program Files/Architecture Custom/Acad Startup Suite/0Current.lsp" "\n0Current.lsp not loaded"))

I verified that the Lisp is named 0Current.lsp

The lsp file is:

(defun C:0Current ()
(command "_.layer" "_Thaw" "0" "_Make" "0" "_Color" "White" "" "_Ltype" "Continuous" "" "_LWeight" "0" "" "_PStyle" "0" "" "")
    (princ)
  )

The C: is so I may call as an AutoCAD command.

?

Yes the C: means you can invoke it at command prompt. You do not need to type c: when invoking the function. You have to type it when your function has arguments, but then you are really calling it as a lisp statement such as (c:somefunc arg1 arg2 ...); and not as a native autoCAD command.

However you function does not take any argument and so should be called as native autoCAD command, that is without the c:

What @Ranjit_Singh said is dead on (which is pretty much true of whatever he says).

You could save yourself a little typing by adding...

(defun c:0C ()(c:0Current))

That way, at the command prompt you could enter either "0Current" or just "0C" (both without including the quotes).
