What are commands like: _DTL_UTLIS_get_temp

Pieman
Pieman over 15 years ago

I came across a skill program (DT_rotator.il) that is used to rotate silkscreen. 

Within this program is the following line of code:

 (unless (setq TempDir (_DTL_UTILS_get_temp))

When I run the program, I am getting the following error message:

 *Error* toplevel: undefined variable - _DTL_UTILS_get_temp

 Can someone please explain what these '_********' commands / variables are?

 Thank you,

Marvin Law

    It is calling a function that is probably loaded from another file. Look for a file named "DTL_UTILS.il" or similar and load that before running the rotator code.
