HowFar lisp is a FREE lisp program to measure the exact distance and the X and Y components between two points (PT1-PT2) in Decimal, Fractional, Engineering, Architectural and Metric. It also gives the angle between the two points in Nearest degree, Decimal degree and degrees/minutes/seconds formats. While the dialog box displays the measurements it allows the user to change the precision of each format from 0 to 8 places precision.
TRY IT OUT.......IT'S FREE

Ummm. DISTANCE command does the exact same thing, and with a little tweaking, you get the format you want. No big deal here. A free cooler full of Labatt's Blue would get my attention. Your freebie is just not quite titillating. Sorry. Unless I'm completely missing the point, which happens occasionally. Just for fun, here is a LISP I wrote that lets you pick lines and arcs (or whatever, but it just adds lines and arcs), adds the lengths and displays a message box with the result. Enjoy. Any and all mistakes are intentional, adding spice to an otherwise perfect file.
