And why would you? You couldn’t use it, and nobody learns a feature or programming language they can’t use. But there may be some of you who are aware (to some degree) of what AutoLISP can do. Now that you have AutoLISP, what can you do with it? Where can you go to find code? What do you do with the code once you have it? For both groups, there may be quite a few questions. Not to worry! Here, we’ll explore what you now have and how to find and use AutoLISP code that you can trust and help you in your daily tasks. AutoLISP 101ĪutoLISP is a dialect of the Lisp programming language. Developed in 1958, Lisp is the second oldest language still in use, next to Fortran. AutoLISP was added to AutoCAD version 2.18 back in 1986 as an interface to extend its functionality. Not only can you use it to automate tasks similar to (but much more powerful than) scripts, but it also lets you interact with the editor in familiar ways. AutoLISP lets you specify points, select objects, enter alpha-numeric data at the command line, or provide input via dialog boxes that are created with its companion language, DCL (Dialog Control Language). ![]() ![]() One of the most important differentiators between AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT is the fact that AutoCAD LT users can now use AutoLISP code.
