I agree, the LISP is a little too hard to work with.  I will probably
implement the lisp functions as an ARX application this time.

This though, makes it difficult for IntelliCAD.  Does anyone know where to
get documentation on IntelliCAD's ARX/ADS implementation?  This would allow
me to try and incorporate (partially, at least) CSG in IntelliCAD.  I
understand that there is now a solid modeler for ICAD, but it costs (which
seems to go against the entire philosophy behing ICAD).  Anyway...any
direction is appreciated.
