Help - exporting co-ordintaes from AutoCad

I am a ong time user but have never got into the inner workings of lisp or
any other "power tools". Anyway, I need to make an ascii (or compatable)
file containing the x,y (z=0) coordinates of a several hundred
points/circles/lines. I have searched far and wide and tried a few routines
that claim to do something along these lines.....but to know avail. When I
used to do cad/cam I know there were converters that "spit out coordintes
and can't image that this is a diffuicult thing to do. I know you can run
the "list" or ""id" commands and then copy/paste that into a text editor and
then massage the dzta but that would take a few days and would be slightly
error prone.

Anyone?

Thanks much

I know it is nerdy to reply to your own message but...oh well....

first off excuse the spelling mistakes.....I spend alot of time on the puter
and when NOT at work I get sloppy...

Anyway, a few more hours of searching and I came up with a solution....as I
suspected a simple little lisp routine that does just the thing I needed. I
found it at...

and it is called r2f.lsp

Party on,
