Where do I find ICAD.lsp? Also Image entity question.

Sounds like s silly question, but where is Icad.lsp located?

I wish to make Icad automatically load my personal lisp routines. The Icad help button tells me I have to add it to Icad.lsp.
I've done a full search on my PC and can I find Icad.lsp? Nup.
Is there an alternative way to automatically appload my lisp routines every time I open the drawing?

Also, How do insert an image ENTITY into a drawing? I can insert a .bmp no problem. I can copyclip into the drawing no problem. I can copy and paste special, but I don't get the option to insert the graphic as an image entity, as I do in ACAD. Rather, the only options I'm given are "Bitmap" or "Device Independant Bitmap". The third ACAD option "Image Entity" is not on the list.

Cheers,
Engel.

Engel,

You have to create Icad.lsp using notepad.

Once created Icad will read the file on startup.

Be sure you do not create Icad.lsp.txt by checking the file extension.

Not sure about the image Entity - no doubt someone will help on this.
