rkmcswain Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 There are some good tutorials at http://www.afralisp.net/ The augi training program may have some current classes. If not, there are probably some archived ones also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borgunit Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 This may seem crazy but the AutoCAD help tutorial is not too bad. It is a little slow paced but does step you through creating an actual application while you learn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way there there is a fine exercise - the Garden Path, I consider that this fine exercise. Look ...Developer Help > AutoLISP Tutorial.

buddygillespie Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 I got to put a plug in for VBA... Seems a bit easier than lisp and has more support. Applications can be written in spreadsheets (like excel) to drive autocad as an example. VB6 business rules written can run AutoCAD to produce drawings. So don't overlook that as a possible program language. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So don't overlook that as a possible program language. VBA is dying. At this point if you are getting started, it would probably be better to just dive into .NET. However, autolisp is still a powerful, easy language to learn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
