\\n because a single \ is a control character in a string, to write a single \ to the text file you need to add \ (control character) and \ (character you want to use) - special case for \ that you have to specify you want to use it as a \

Either of these options still work. What your CAD software is looking for is the correct syntax and format with { } like ( ) in lisp. you can write lisp/dcl with one word per line or all on one line as long as the ( ) & { } match up. wouldn't be easy to read but would work. if it works how can it be wrong? its more like personal preference. so if you don't want them broken up into multiple lines take out the //n. or like in my third example add it after each ; :row { :text { value="when the command is first executed"; is_enabled=flash; fixed_width=true; width=29; fixed_height=true; height=0; } } :row { :text { value="when the command is first executed"; is_enabled=flash; fixed_width=true; width=29; fixed_height=true; height=0; } } :row { :text { value="when the command is first executed"; is_enabled=flash; fixed_width=true; width=29; fixed_height=true; height=0; } }

What you are attempting to do is to crack AutoCAD's security, which seems to be working! I expect you have already tried using the License Transfer utility? i expect that somewhere in the small print of the terms of use there is a definition of "Perpetual" which doesn't agree with your understanding of the word. But to be practical, have you tried a virtual environment? I am running version 2002 with VMWare on a Windows 10 machine.

This was asked for a little while ago, I know did a possible solution, will try to find again. https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/visual-lisp-autolisp-and-general/line-between-two-lines/td-p/3781918/page/2

Several years ago, my boss insisted on doing this--putting a post at each end and corner of a fence. As the other responses indicate, there is no known mechanism for doing that automatically, short of writing some code, but that's not a linetype. I did a lot of research, but I wound up having to draw the fence and insert an array of post blocks... which meant redrawing the whole length of any segment that changed. Sorry. Hope you find a better solution.
