Subject: Customizing script files using a text editor

The easiest way to create or customize a script file manually is to record and save a script in CADdirect that approximates the commands and actions you want, then cus­tomize the script as necessary using a text editor. In addition to CADdirect com­mands, it is also common to include standard LISP functions and commands in script files.

Be sure to save the script file in ASCII format with an .scr file extension.
