I doubt that autolisp is going away any time soon. ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor. If you are reading this, you are the resistance." <<AutoCAD 2015>> |

AutoLISP (VisualLISP) is - and will be - the easiest way to make smaller utilities and add-ons for AutoCAD. To develop more advanced design automation tools and larger development projects, I would recommend one of the .NET tools (VB.Net, C#, etc.). ------------- Vladimir Michl (moderator) ARKANCE - https://arkance.world" rel="nofollow - https://arkance.world - Autodesk Platinum Partner |

HI, Half of the Acad express menu and even the standard acad menu file contains lisp. So i think it will not disappear at all. Regarding the programming i completely agree with Vladimir  . |

| A more likely scenario for an AutoLisp disappearance would be a shear-grade (combination upgrade and crossgrade, AutoCAD -> Inventor, AutoCAD -> Revit, etc.). The .NET variants are more comprehensive. |
