Wierd message after running LISP routine - "So long, and thanks for all the fish"
OK, today I was drawing a rectangle with a lisp routine called RT.lsp. I've had it in my acad.lsp file for well over 10 years now.
I cut and pasted a drawing straight from Visio right onto my AutoCad screen, actually did a drag and drop, it surprised me that it would work.
So, I went into my RT command to draw the rectangle. Basically I draw a lone on whatever angle I want, then it takes a right angle off the endpoint and allows me to select the 3rd point and fills in the rest making it a closed polyline. Well, today, after I clicked the 3rd point, the image dissappeared and I noticed some text down on my command line that's not usually there. When this routine normally executes, it will print "Hey, isn't that a polyrectangle" on my command line (It's just something I put in there many years ago.".. Well, today, the message was:
"So long, and thanks for all the fish"
I kid you not, this is not a joke. I have only downloaded one small program lately from a very reputable site. I contacted the author and he said he had nothing to do with it. Does anyone have any idea where this message came from?? I mean, beside Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy?? Which, BTW, was just released on DVD last week.. Coincidence?? Hmmm...
An ideas??
