... I've updated my infamous syntax file, see this.

Anything missing? Please let me know.

What's Textpad? A GREAT ascii basher; been using it for a decade or so.

For lisp that is. The lisp tcl file in the download section is 6 years old. It does not have all of the new VL in it.

I don't use them myself. However, I'd be more than happy to contribute towards one (in the evenings).

What are you looking for?

Well, that would be nice. I was looking for all of the visual lisp functions and their approporiate syntax examples.

What I've done is link (via Textpad tools) to the Visual LISP and VBA Developer's help files, and the DXF Reference that comes with AutoCAD. I've never needed anything more.



What is it you'd want the clip files to do specifically (surely not all Visual LISP functions; yegads).
