Modifying Autocad Commands

    I know there's a file for doing this, but I can't remember what it's called or where to locate it (have Autocad 2006 installed).

    It's for shortening commands. Any help is appreciated.

    I've been using ACAD 2010 but I think it's a similar method in other versions. Here's two ways I've used.

    Tools
    > Customize
    > Edit Program Parameters(acad.pgp file)
    This opens a notepad which allows you to modify the shortcuts which are on the right of the pad. You'll be asked to save this when you cancel the page and I think it starts once you open a new drawing I think.

    There's also a ribbon in 2010 which has 'Express Tools' and there's an option to edit command alias. Think in the older versions there will be a toolbar 'Express' which allows you to go select 'Tools' and then 'Command Alias Editor'. Other than that you might be able to type 'ALIASEDIT' in the command line which opens the same window but not 100% if this command works in your version.

    Hope some of this helps..:)
