You may need to refer to the DXF Reference when working with association lists describing entity data. The DXF Reference is available through the AutoCAD and Visual LISP Help menus.
• The ObjectARX Reference contains information on using ObjectARX^. to develop customized AutoCAD applications. AutoCAD reactor functionality is implemented through ObjectARX. If you develop AutoLISP applications that implement reactor functions, you may want to refer to this manual.
