   Hello,
I currently work with a 10-key program called Launchpad, it most definitely made me much faster at cad, one hand on mouse and one on ten key = much less typing.  I don't want to be dependent on the software so I kind of duplicated a simple command list lisp routine that will do pretty much the same thing.  I am not a programmer so I am definitely not good at writing lisp routines.

Any help would be appreciated, here is the list currently with what commands are working and which are not. Anyone who is good with lisps could probably fix the non-working ones in no time.  The osnaps are the most important function IMO.

	You should call an existing command in the "(command)" function. E.g. GLUE and PL are no real command names. The _INT, _MID, etc. are osnap modes, should work inside other commands.

	To elaborate on non-native-AutoCAD commands not being usable inside (command) functions: If PM is a User-defined command by way of (defun C:PM ...), it should be called this way: ;;;POLYLINE MAKER (DEFUN C:17 () (C:PM)) and similarly with others, though I wonder whether it's any easier to type 17 to get it than just to type PM directly, but I'll leave that to you. In the case of Cancel, there is no such command name [it's not in the Command Reference]. Issuing a (command) function with no arguments will cancel most commands [see the AutoLISP Reference about it]: ;;;CANCEL (DEFUN C:33 () (COMMAND)) In some cases, maybe you have an overlay program that has redefined some commands, including undefining the native command name, in which case (command) won't recognize it. If you precede all actual AutoCAD command names with a period/decimal [or an underscore and a period/decimal], it will force it to use the native command definition instead of the redefinition, for example: ;;;FILLET (DEFUN C:51 () (COMMAND "_.FILLET"))

	Thanks for the help thus far guys. Vladimir, I don't know how to write it in to be an existing commands, will i have to come up with the verbage and than insert it into every command to enable it? Kent, I will definitely try the _."command" I just noticed the "." yesterday. As far as easier to do, I don't use the keyboard unless I am typing in text or numerical distances typically, speeds up performance tremendously IMO.
