switches

i am using the /s switch for my custom lsp and mns files and it replaces all pathing in the options dialog box to be just the the switch i set up. i want to do this switch but still get the default pathing with the switch at the top of the pathing
help please

 

You might try using profiles instead of the switches.

all pathing in the options dialog box to be just the the switch i set up. i

the top of the pathing

 

i am using profiles now thanks anyways

 

can you explain, I have not heard of this \s option except in the target path of the icon. In the icon, it means "run
this script" of course.

I did a routine that is quite nice for controlling paths that you may want to use instead of the /s.
It is essentially a remove and add back paths routine. Its nice though because you set up a text file of paths to
remove and put back (in the order you want). The text file can have [username] and the prog will substitute in the user
loginname. Its a staple in my operation at H&A.
thx

right, but where are you putting the /s? in a lisp file?

|>/s Designates support folders other than the current folder. Drawing support files include text fonts, menus, AutoLISP files, linetypes, and hatch patterns. The maximum number of folders you can specify in the path is 15. Each folder name is delimited by semicolons. (it is a command line switch) i would love to take a look at what you got thanks
