Short description

🧩 LoadRecent is an AutoCAD AutoLISP DCL manager for finding reviewing loading running editing and promoting recently created LSP files from a predefined @try development folder.
🎛️ The interface separates the newest LISP file from the complete file list and displays file size creation date modification date and detected commands.
📦 Version 06 also adds promotion into the Help_File menu structure with optional source deletion loader registration and timestamped loader backup.

Command:

Main command: LOADRECENT
Alternate command: LOADRECENT_DCL

✅ Wildcard filtering – supports star and question mark file name patterns.
✅ Sort control – switches between newest first and alphabetical file ordering.
✅ Today marker – marks files created on the current date.
✅ Command extraction – detects DEFUN C commands from each LSP source.
✅ Multi command selection – supports selecting and copying multiple detected commands.
✅ Clipboard integration – copies commands through an HTML clipboard object with PowerShell and clip fallbacks.
✅ Notepad++ integration – opens the newest or selected LSP for editing.
✅ Load and run workflow – loads the chosen source and executes the selected command.
✅ Promote to Help_File – moves or copies a development LSP into the structured production menu tree.
✅ Automatic menu discovery – scans AutoCAD and Civil 3D *_menu folders for promotion targets.
✅ Loader registration – can insert the promoted path under the matching bookmark in @LoadAllLisp2.lsp.
✅ Loader backup – can create a timestamped backup before modifying the loader.
✅ Persistent last command – stores the last used command in LR_config.ini.
