Hard or Carraige Return or Enter on command line

[SlipShadow]

Does anyone know if autocad has a command for a hard or carraige return (or enter) on the command line?

I am running a few voice commands (MS WSR Macros) and it works great except I need to make AutoCAD after some commands.

 

For instance:

 

_-view

_swiso

In a macro, a semi-colon (or space) represents the user hitting enter.

To add to what Lee said, in AutoLISP you use: (command "")

Thanks for the timely responses!

 

Unfortunately, these only work if you are using AutoLisp or whatever, not entering it into the command line. I am trying to avoid building a bunch of new ACAD macros/autlisp routines just so I can then turn around and build a bunch of WSR Macros to activate them.

 

WSR Macros enters the text, and if you hit return and type a new line in the WSR Macro, it will return and enter that new text in AutoCAD's command line, however, after it enters the text it does not . It will also not recognize a space, so I can't simply add a blank line at the end and get it to return.

Try "\n" or "\\" or a space.

Does it understand carriage return chr(13) or line feed chr(10)?

Does it understand carriage return chr(13) or line feed chr(10)?

 

 

Try using ^M. You can use ^M (within a MTEXT string) in your Macro and it will give you a line return. (don't use the semi-colon bec it will end the current command)
