how to read and write the current working directory

Stephan Bartl

Hi all,

Is there a way in Bricscad to read and write the value of the current working directory?

In Autocad i use acet-file-cwd for reading and acet-file-chdir for writing. Thanks.

Kind regards,

Stephan

Sorry, of course I am referring to autolisp.

Hello, Stephan,
good point !
As we already have several (acet-xxx) functions built-in with our Lisp engine,
I will improve that list and add (acet-file-cwd) and (acet-file-chdir).

Currently, we already have :
(vl-getcurrentdir)
(vl-setcurrentdir folder)

This is functionally the same ... but the other (acet-...) functions mentioned
will also be added.

Many greetings, Torsten

Super, thank you, Torsten!

In case Bricsys is generally interested to implement more acet-functions then I recommend to have a look at one of these 2 links:

either http://www.afralisp.net/lisp/acet-utils.htm (HTML) or http://www.jtbworld.com/download/acetutil.zip (PDF)

Kind regards, Stephan
