Topic: Autocad LT12 Lisp Posted: 24.Jun.2016 at 08:59
Hi, I have just had my eyes opened to the wonderful world of LIPS routines and how powerful they are. However, i am running autocad LT12 and there does not appear to be a facility to run LISP. Can anyone help with this please? Are there any add-ons etc. There is a possibility that we may be upgradingto autocad lt17. Thank you.

Lisp is NOT supported in any version of AutoCAD LT. You are limited to macros or diesel macros. There are a couple of websites solely dedicated to LT that demonstrate the use of these programming options. There is only one add-on for LT that supposedly gives users the ability to utilize lisp in LT but I don't know for sure if it works or not as I have never tried it. A simple search should bring up links to the program website.

Or buy, if possible, CADSTA and see if it works. Of course there is no telling what it's future may be if and when AutoDesk decides to take the company to court. I think they drove another company with a similar such program out of business. That's what happens when you mess with the bully on the block.
