    i wasn't sure if the title really describes what i'm trying to do.
    I am a beginner at this lisp coding, but i'd like to try and write this myself. I just would like help or tips on maybe what function i should use and how i should structure it.

    So the problems is this:
    Description: User types a command TB to insert terminal blocks into a wiring. Terminal Block has 2 attributes, one for the number of it and 2nd for the description of the current. Then, it prompts the user for How Many Points?
    Usually the terminal blocks come in a group of 12 but vary from 6-100+, and editing the description of them is a pitty, since you have to click on each one, so for the lisp, maybe there's a way to combine them and use one editing form for all the terminal blocks in a group. Last, it will ask the user to pick the top left point and rotation of the terminal block.

    That's the problem, I don't think it's very simple, but I'm sure it's possible.
    So are there some very shortcuts or functions that do some of these things easily?

    Thanks,
    Viktor
