This really isn't a LISP issue, but I figured LISP programmers are probably going to have the best handle on this.... I'm importing a text file into MTEXT, and I want to have some of the text in bold. Since cutting & pasting is easier in MS Word than tediously selecting & bolding in acad, I was wondering if there was a way to embed acad control characters in my TXT file. Here's what I mean: I have a paragraph heading that I want to be BOLD in the midst of the text file: MATERIALS a listing of the mtext in acad shows something like: { Arial|b1|i0|c0|p34; MATERIALS} So...of course I tried adding the "{ Arial|b1|i0|c0|p34;" to the front of the text and the "}" behind, and that's how the end result looked...that is, { Arial|b1|i0|c0|p34;MATERIALS} instead of MATERIALS bolded. I then tried {\f since acad interprets 2 backslashes as 1 (or vice versa) Is there any way to get it to interpret the control characters as control characters instead of literal text?
