Just add the line below into your acaddoc.lsp file:

(alert "Your message here!")

But remember that this will work only on your workstation - there is no way to ship the drawing with that message to someone.

Hehe... actually there is, by using a protected namespace and stored the LISP data in the drawing dictionary - but I wouldn't advise it

Sound very interesting!!!
Now, that you opened the subject, how about an example?
Thanks!

Certainly, but its a taboo subject due to the obvious ease of implementing self-running malicious code...

Great, that's all we need. Another way for these idiots to distribute viruses.

Would something like this end up infecting other drawings, like the educational plot stamp does? So if you xref this drawing, with this annoying message, into your drawing to use as a base, does your drawing now contain the message too?

God I hope people don't start doing this.

Its not too easy to do to be honest Rod, so I wouldn't get your hopes up - it was just an example of what can be done.

Open a drawing and get a massage? You can write a LISP for that? That's as good a reason as I've ever found for upgrading from LT!

Massage? (perk) Can they do that with code now? Does the massuese have to be male?


Oh, wait. ..message... I get it now.
