 Topic: generating a list of commands, HELP?
Posted: 12.Feb.2014 at 18:17 |
I am trying to create a list of commands on AutoCAD 2010. I have
tried doing it by going through .. Tools>Customize>Edit program parameters.
However this only brings up the default list and there are a number of commands
that have been created over the past 10 or so years. If any one knows how i
could create this list that would be great?
Thank you for your help!
Tom

How about you just buy a book? The Quick Start Guides used to have many of the commands listed but I don't recall the last time I saw one shipped with AutoCAD. Maybe it was 2004.
Maybe this will get you started....

There are a LOT of commands so click on each category then do a Print Screen or something similar. Hope you have a good printer with a fresh ink cartridge and a lot of paper.

This is a great start for me thanks... i don't suppose you know how i can get a list of commands that have been created that aren't standard autocad ones? i am trying to make a list for the company i work for of all the commands they have a lot of them have been created by them selves over a number of years and they havent kept a record of them.

How did they create these commands? Did they edit the acad.pgp file? Did they create custom lisp routines? Did they use macros? Did they create custom shortcut keys? We need for information.

Are all lisp routines loaded automatically or just when needed?
Are you sure the acad.pgp file wasn't edited?

Someone in your company must have a master list of all the routines that are being loaded.
On another note, are you going to be tracking the settings for all system variables as well?

Here...I found you a graphic chart that will show you a list of commands by versions starting with AutoCAD 2004 to AutoCAD 2013. http://www.hyperpics.com/commands/

The following code was written by someone identifying themselves as PDJ at the CAD Forums. Supposedly it will give you a list of routines that have been loaded. I have not tested it so I can't tell you if it actually works or not.
(DEFUN C:LD(/ L2L)
(SETQ L2L(GETSTRING"\nProgram to Load: "))
(LOAD L2L)
)
