AutoLISP: Erase Single

Here is another erase routine that lets you select only one object at a time but like the previous post, it erases the selected object and then continues the erase command.

My ultimate goal would be to combine these 2 routines into one.

(defun c:es (/ ent ecnt eprompt)

(setvar "ERRNO" 0)

(setq eprompt "\nSelect object: "

ecnt 0

)

(while (or (setq ent (entsel eprompt))

(eq 7 (getvar "errno"))

)

(cond

((= ent "Undo")

(command "u")

(setq ecnt (1- ecnt))

)

((= (type ent) 'list)

(command "erase" ent "")

(setq ecnt (1+ ecnt))

)

(t nil)

)

(setvar "ERRNO" 0)

(if (not (zerop ecnt))

(progn

(setq eprompt "\nUndo/<Select object>: ")

(initget "Undo")

)

(setq eprompt "\nSelect object: ")

)

)

(princ)
