    ok.. you all know how when you use the move command.. or copy.. and
    other core cad commands.. you are asked to pick 2 points.. and after
    picking the first one cad "draws" a line from there to your cursor
    location..then it is removed once the command is done.. right?..

    how can i create the same effect?..

    I am asking the user for 2 points..

    (getpoint "blah")
    (getpoint "blah2")

    and I want that hovering line to show up when asking for the 2nd point.

    please help..

    (setq pt1 (getpoint "\n Select point: "))
    (setq pt2 (getpoint pt1 "\n Select next point: "))
