Hi everybody.
I'm new on this forum and would like to ask you for a favour.
We are facing some problems while dealing with Xref's. Few people select Bind instead of Insert command. This creats mess in our Layer system. I'm  searching a List that could translate these layers back into normal ones.
Some may say, whay don't you use Layer translator? It is not sutable for the amount of layers that we need to correct.
 
So the problem is next:
We need to translate back in normal layers (let's cal them A-1, A-2, A-3, A-4,....) from prefix that they got while Binding and looks:
4176-X_TT$0$A-1

4176-X_TT$0$A-2

4176-X_TT$0$A-3

4176-X_TT$0$A-4

4176-X_TT$0$A-5.....
 

4176-X_SS$0$A-1

4176-X_SS$0$A-2

4176-X_SS$0$A-3

4176-X_SS$0$A-4

4176-X_SS$0$A-5...
....
 
I need that all numbers, symblos, letters.... before real Layers name dissaper.
Please note that becouse of few diferent Xref's in my drawing it is also few diferent prefix (4176-X_TT$0$ or 4176-X_SS$0$....), so list should be writen so that we can write different prefix TT or SS.
 
Thank you in advance

If you are looking for a lisp routine to handle this I'd suggest inquiring over at The Swamp where a number of good programmers hang out.  The next best location would be CADTutor.  Ask for Lee Mac.
