ACAD Script with other than LISP program

ACAD Script with other than LISP program

ACAD Script with other than LISP program

(OP)
Can ACAD Script be used with FORTRAN and BASIC?

RE: ACAD Script with other than LISP program

Not sure your question-

by script to you mean ".scr" files? Those can be read by only AutoCAd.

or do you mean can Fortran or Basic routines be called by a ".scr" file?  I'd say no, script files are just a series of AutoCAD commands.

Do you mean, can Fortran or Basic be used to automate Autocad? not that I've heard; but AutoCAD arx applications are developed with C++ or similar, and VBA can be used for some applications, although I believe that is getting phased out.

RE: ACAD Script with other than LISP program

(OP)
Your fourth paragraph is the answer that I am looking for.
I guess LISP will be the only program compatible with ACAD if the other programs are phased out.
