Setting Case for Symbols

AutoCAD AutoLISP & Visual LISP

 
Setting Case for Symbols
 
 
 

By default, the VLISP formatter does not change the case of AutoLISP symbols. You can set the formatter to change the case of symbols according to the VLISP protection state for symbols.

The Protected options subgroup controls the case conversion of protected symbols (built-in symbols or symbols with the ASSIGN-PROTECT flag set). The Unprotected options subgroup controls case conversion of unprotected (user) AutoLISP symbols.
