To learn or Not to Learn LISP Programming

To learn or Not to Learn LISP Programming

To learn or Not to Learn LISP Programming

(OP)
I have never bother to learn the referenced program while using AutoCAD for several years.  So my question is when applying LISP, does that mess up all the default ACAD commands from the keyboard such as the F keys and shortcut line commands?

RE: To learn or Not to Learn LISP Programming

No, lisp routines are files separate from a drawing or the AutoCAD program.  You can control how they are called to be executed.  Typically they are designed to run upon typing a word/phrase that can be remembered and short, such as "text2mtext" ot "t2m".  The can also can be executed from a custom menu or button.  You can design a routine to run in place of an AutoCAD command if desired.
