Autosaving Bmp Files

Hi I am wanting to create an animation of an autocad drawing form start to finish. I think the best way would be to write an autolisp program saving the drawing every 10mins or say 40 commands as a bitmap into individual files which can be combined as an animation. I have no idea how to write this autolisp program....can anyone help?

Thanks...

Bill

You could also do it as a script file then play the script back. We used to do this at public information sessions using a series of drawings called up on the computer, in a particular sequence, displayed for a short period of time, then replaced by the next drawing. The script was written to "loop" the entire sequence over and over completely unattended until such time as a key combination would stop the display.
