Autodesk AUTOCAD 2006, Command Reference Manual, Page: 25 / 1490

Introduction
The Command Reference, a comprehensive guide to AutoCAD
®
commands,
lists all AutoCAD commands in alphabetical order.
In addition to the command listings, the Command Reference covers several
topics in the appendixes: command aliases, system variables, dimension
variables, utilities, standard libraries, graphical database objects, and Unicode
fonts.
The index for the Command Reference is at the end of Volume II.
Using AutoCAD Documentation
In addition to this Command Reference, several other resources are available to
help you learn and use AutoCAD. The complete documentation set for
AutoCAD is online. You can access it from the Help menu.
NOTE For the latest documentation corrections and additions, refer to the Readme
file.
Using This Reference
The Command Reference provides detailed information on all commands,
command options, and system variables. The explanations reflect the default
AutoCAD system variable settings and the default prototype drawing. If you
change system variable settings, the prompts on your screen might differ from
what you see here. For example, the setting of the FILEDIA system variable
governs whether you work in a dialog box or on the command line when you
use certain commands. See appendix B, “System Variables”.
Executing Commands
The process of executing a command begins by starting the command, using
one of several methods. For some commands, such as REGEN, no further
action is required. For other commands, you must respond by providing
additional information or actions in order to complete the command.
