Executing LSP routines
Executing LSP routines
(OP)
Hello.
I've downloaded some LSP routines for inserting fasteners into my drawings but I don't know how to execute them.
The readme.txt file says to put the LSP routine in the \Support directory and then run it by (load "xxx.lsp"). When I do that on the command line it seems to take and responds with C:XXX. However, there doesn't seem to be any change to my system - no new menus or toolbars, nada. If I go into "Tools - Load Application", it tells me that XXX has been loaded. Try as I might, I can't find the means to execute it. I've tried several different LSP routines and have never been able to run them.
How do I actually execute the routines after I've loaded them? (BTW, I'm using 2002.)

RE: Executing LSP routines
Open the XXX.lsp with notepad or wordpad and search for (DEFUN C:
DEFUN = define function and the C: means its a command line function.
You would enter the portion follow the C: at the command line to execute the function.

It was as simple as knowing to just type the XXX at the command line.
Thanks!
