# Civil AutoLISP
This project contains a bunch of ~~functions~~ scripts I use every day -literally- at work. Everything works around *AutoCAD*, and it is focused on civil engineering.
## Getting Started
These instructions will help you to be ready to start in few minutes.
### Prerequisities
Any *AutoCAD* full version.
As all the project is written for *AutoCAD*, it should work fine in any of the *AutoCAD* derivatives too (*AutoCAD Civil 3D*, etc.), as long as they support *AutoLISP* and *VLISP* languages. This project will not run in any LT version.
### Installing
There are many different ways to load a `.lsp` file:
To load a `.lsp` file temporarily, drag it file into *AutoCAD*'s *Model Space* and select *Load Once* as shown below:
If you want *AutoCAD* to remember your choice, you can select *Always Load* and you won't be asked each time you load it.
Another option is to add a directory to *Trusted Locations*. This way, any file within this directory will be *trusted*. Thus, the message above will not pop up when you load any file from this *trusted* directory.
## Executing
Open the `.lsp` file with a text editor and look for `(defun c:`. The characters immediately after this are the triggers of the command.
Let's suppose that you load an hypothetical `hello.lsp` file which looks like this:
```lisp
(defun c:greeting()
(alert "Hi!")
);END defun
```
Once loaded, go to the command line and type `greeting`. If everything is correct, *AutoCAD* should suggest you the `GREETING` command even before you finish typing it. Hit ENTER to execute it.
## To-do
- [ ] Tidy up dump folder.
- [ ] Map all dependencies.
- [ ] Reorganize the whole repository.
- [ ] Keep core scripts in `master` branch.
- [ ] Move extra features to `testing` branches.
