A Visual LISP Exercise: Application That Reads Point List From a TXT File
Today we will work on Orhan’s article “AutoLISP application that reads points from a list and places them in the drawing“. First of all, we will convert it to VisualLISP language, and then give you detailed explanation. Our application will (or I hope it will
