this is REAL basic, but I don't know that I ever really thought about it.
I have a routine I am writing brute force, it runs.
now I come to the place where I want to do some defun ing for economy, and just nicer code.
I have, in the past, placed my defuns at the beginning of the file, and I have at other times put them at the end. I don't see why they couldn't be in the middle, if there were a reason. like maybe they are only needed in response to a particular condition.
I think I will end up putting them at the beginning, but that is likely just habit.
is it a good habit?
thanks
by the by, gile....
I downloaded your routine that does total areas - because I was betting I would learn something.
I REALLY appreciate the way you did your DCL coding in line - in the lsp file. dialog boxes and I have not gotten on so very well in the past, but I have my first one written. not in line yet,
but running thanks.
