This lisp program (AUTOCAD.LSP) is for use with the AutoCAD (tm)
computer aided drafting program. It adds a safety feature to
the package by automatically saving your drawing periodically
as you edit.
Each time you use one of the commands listed below
the system will check the time since the last save. If the
save increment time has passed the current drawing will be
saved under the name "CURRENT.DWG" and the command will execute.
If not the drawing will not be saved and the command will
excute immediately.
This feature will allow you to recover lost
drawings due to a system lock-up that requires a re-boot,
power failures, and quitting a session without saving.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
AUTO-LOAD INSTRUCTIONS:
To use Autosave you must rename AUTOCAD.LSP to ACAD.LSP
or if you already have a file ACAD.LSP, AUTOCAD.LSP must be
added to your existing ACAD.LSP file.
TO MANUALLY LOAD:
Type (load "autocad") at the Command: prompt and return.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
COMMAND LIST:
The following commands are available after loading
AUTOCAD.LSP or when you enter the drawing editor
if you used the auto-load method.
W - Window Zoom
D - Dynamic Zoom
C - Center Zoom
P - Previous Zoom
E - Zoom to Extents
L - Zoom to Limits
N - Pan
R - Redraw
H - Highlight On/Off (Toggle)
ER - Erase
SI - Save increment (Set minutes between saves - 15 min. default)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
TO RECOVER A LOST DRAWING:
1. Load existing drawing named "CURRENT", if acceptable save under
your drawing name.
2. Rename your drawing and rename "Current.dwg" to your drawing name,
load and edit as usual.
