Undo bug and icad.lsp

I have just installed Icad PE+ 6.1.19.1. There is no icad.lsp file in my installation. I need to change undoctl to '1' to solve the undo bug. How do I create an icad.lsp file from scratch - I tried making it in notepad and put in the setvar command I want but it didn't load. I presume I'm missing some defining syntax / header to the lsp file? ...or do I need to set the path somewhere?
PS this fix for the undo bug was in a post from 5 years ago - has it really not been fixed yet; what's up?

thegreenwebb,
The problem with using notepad to create a lisp routine is it will place the file extension ".txt".
Your lisp file may look like:
mylisp.lsp.txt when you show the file extensions in windows.
When you delete the .txt the lisp file will read on startup if it is in the ICAD root directory or you have set a path to it in ICAD.
I thought the undo bug was fixed - not sure, I will need to try this out.

I haven't had that problem with Notepad, or just edited the file if I did. I got icad.lsp to work; not sure why it didn't the first time.
Haven't encountered the undo bug since but have found many others. Is this software still in active development or are we on our own?
