Looks like it has been removed for most sites.
Perhaps this one will work for you.

Does anyone have a good book to recommend for all the vla stuff?  (e-book would be nice) I know my way around entget/entmod, but I'm just stumbling with basics on vla, learning as I go when I see good code from others.

Just stumbled across an AutoLISP book,  free download:

Haven't read it yet.

Luis,  I noticed that Reinaldo has mentioned theSwamp and Owen at OpenDCL in his Acknowledgements.
He's been writing about Lisp for quite a while and does a good job of the subject I think.

Dan,
I don't have the book ... I have the 4 Kindle e-books which I believe make up the book.

Not sure if this has been posted in here or not, but when looking for information for xdata, I found this link

http://www.autodesk.com/techpubs/autocad/acadr14/dxf/dxf_group_codes.htm

Which when I look at the viewport entity, it listed the meanings of the xdata group codes.  I have never seen them listed before.  Even though it is for an old version, the codes (mostly) should still be the same.

Like kerry the e-books were only $8 each so bought all 4 for less than 1 paper version.

Vector Images for Dialog Boxes

I haven't tried this out myself yet, but I think it's an amazing piece of code. The author didn't get enough recognition and the amazing potential this utility can produce has never really been shown off:

http://www.theswamp.org/index.php?topic=20878.msg391581#msg391581

When first stumbled upon this I was full-on into learning about DCL (my weakest area when working with LISP). Other things prevented me from trying this out.

I personally think Vector images are better than Slide Images if you can use them for a few reasons.
