CAB
I have been using your PL2CLOUD.lsp for some time now and, I must say it is quite handy. I do have one problem though. I have set it up to load using the start up suite but for some reason that doesn't work anymore. Maybe you could help me with this?  I am using AutoCAD R2002.
Thanking you in advance,
I, am,

Look for your acad2002doc.lsp file and append this to it:

(autoload "pl2cloud.lsp" '("pl2c" "pl2cloud"))

It'll load when you type "pl2c", or "pl2cloud" without the quotes in the command line.

Oh, and make sure that the pl2cloud file is in your search path.

Don't use the acad2002doc.lsp ! It's reserved for AUTOCAD! Read in the Onlinehelp!! -> acaddoc.lsp

Use the acaddoc.lsp!

I copy my acad200*doc.lsp to a folder called STARTUP, then put this folder at the top of my search path, AutoCad finds this and stops looking for it, and the original is kept in tact. 100 ways to skin a cat, six in one hand half dozen in the other, and such. I've never had a problem in the many years I've been doing this.

Are there any hidden impacts that I may have never come across?
