offset multiple lines

Hello All,
Is there any lisp to do the following operation.
Select multiple polyines that connected to each other, and do offset as a single polyline with a specified distance to original objects.

There's also one in Express Tools that might work for you...

That would be kinda tricky.
You did not say how the offset side would be picked or if you are offsetting to both sides.
Offsetting to both sides would be easy, but guaranteeing the offset to one side only would
require more code. Using the 'Offset Method' you could specify a positive distance and IF all the
plines are all drawn clockwise or all ccw then it could work. To make sure you would have to
test the direction of each pline before offsetting. Still not sure how the pick point of side
to offset would relate to all the objects.

Just thinking aloud here. :)

User is going to pick which side he want to offset.
