Thank you!That is a good way.
But I just want to know how to use  Lisp program to achieve the function.

Don't think so. I can't imagine a key-binding from lisp (not even DotNet/ARX) - especially the Esc key. Those things are governed by the operating system, not ACad. All acad can do is read the key event windows sends it, and then perform a function on it. Unfortunately the Esc key is a special case which errors out all lisp code - for the others you might try grread (though it doesn't work on all keys).
Common sense - the curse in disguise. Because if you have it, you have to live with those that don't.

Thank you very much for your reply. :-)
