Write your name on the status bar of AutoCAD

[India]

Just seeing the Oops! Command response, I thought I may post this funny thing.
Command: setvar
This is the single command that power AutoCAD. It has many subcommand, infact switches that set or unset many parameters in AutoCAD.
Justfor example
type "clayer" and you get the current layer name as a string output. Very useful for AutoLISP programmers.
So ever thought of attaching your name to the lower left corner of AutoCAD Window? Try this
modemacro <enter> "Your Name"
Bingo!
This can be used to display the counter when processing a lot of entities in LISP. What say?

how do we save it so its always in there, after restarting cad it disappeared.

It is a temporary arrangement. If you want it to stay there, edit the Acad.lsp in support directory and add the following lines;

(setvar "modemacro" "yourname")

every time this file loads, it will set it.

It's actually ACAD.LSP, if you don't have one you can create the file with notepad, for customizations and save it in a file that is in your search path.
