extra line at prompt?

I'm getting an extra line at the command prompt after autolisp execution.
Does anyone know why? The following is copy/pasted from my command history.
Notice the extra blank lines

Command: (defun c:test () (setq temp 0.123))
C:TEST

Command: (defun ftest () (setq temp 0.123))
FTEST

Command: test
0.123

Command: (ftest)
0.123

 

Close the routine with a (princ) just before the last paren.

 

Still does it...

Command: (defun c:test () (setq temp 0.123)(princ))
C:TEST

Command: test

Command:

..
..
..
..
..

 

Just curious... you only notice the extra line if your in the textscreen, it
doesn't show up in the command line window. My curiosity is, how is this
hurting your program?

Have fun,
Dave

 

(defun c:test1 () (setq temp 0.123))
this one returns
0.123
a single time.

(defun c:test2 () (setq temp 0.123)(princ))
this one returns nothing, just the command prompt.

(defun c:test3 () (setq temp 0.123)(princ temp)(princ))
this one returns
0.123
a single time.

(defun c:test4 () (setq temp 0.123)(princ "\nTEMP: ")(princ temp)(princ))
this one returns
TEMP: 0.123

I can't get it to duplicate!

It adds an extra empty line to the command promp, that's the annoying part.
I like to keep my command prompt at the standard 3 lines deep. That way I
can see the current command plus a prompt above in the history.

 

Hi Doug,

It doesn't duplicate, it's just adding an extra blank line after the
execution of every command or function.

 

It didn't do that at work... let me try it here. I run mine 3 lines too.

HAve fun,
Dave

 

The extra line is still only showing up in the textscreen part and not in
the command prompt area. Looks pretty clean form here.

Have fun,
Dave

 

He means that he can't duplicate the problem that you are getting......

Hi Doug,

It doesn't duplicate, it's just adding an extra blank line after the
execution of every command or function.

 

I wonder why mine's showing up in both?

 

Is you command line docked?

 

It came about with R15. In order to avoid the extra "Command:" echo, you must
make at least one call to either the (vl-cmdf) function or the (command)
function. As a matter of habit, I add the extra code right after my local
*error* declaration...
(setvar "cmdecho" 0)
(command "_.expert" (getvar "expert"))

 

Thanks, John.

I've been wondering this question, apparently since I upgraded to R15.

Yes

 

Thanks John, I never would have known.
