LISP for Mac

Below is a list of LISP routines that work on AutoCAD for Mac. These have been tested to work, but please use with caution as  neither the creators nor I accept any responsibility for these routines or how they are used. Please use at your own risk.

These routines were gathered / indexed from a number of sources and I claim none of these as my own. Wonderful sites who have contributed to this list include Lee-Mac Programming, MacAcadFreeCADapps.com, as well as miscellaneous forums and posts.

Again, the purpose of this page is to provide an index of routines that work specifically on AutoCAD for Mac, as they are “vanilla” LISP only, with no other call languages. If you have any to add, please email me at jim@impactdesigns.biz. Thanks!
