i've never used alias editor (it's just so easy to open the acad.pgp file and work from there, why use anything else), but i'm pretty sure you can add new shortcuts for commands.

just type in your desired shortcut LF and the actual command name LAYFRZ, that will give you the desired result you want.

if that doens't work, just open the acad.pgp file:

"start" "acad.pgp" will open it.

scroll down to the very bottom and add any custom shortcuts you like in this fashion:

LF, *LAYFRZ

 

actually, now that i think of it, you should just be able to type "expresstools" and it will reload all express tools.

 

hope this helps.

 

i just looked at alias editor, just click on add and from there you can type in the shortcut and the desired command.

There is a folder within the autocad folder called express. It has all of the Autolisp functions within it. You can change the shortcuts that way but its not recommended.

 

Another way is to make a lisp function. Quite simply it may look like this

 

(defun c:BU()

(c:burst)

)
