Expressions in DIESEL (Direct Interpretively Evaluated String Expression Language) take strings as input and generate string results.
The strings generated by DIESEL expressions can be used to:
- Control the labels and behavior of buttons on ribbon panels and toolbars in Windows-based releases of AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT products
- Display text on the status bar with the MODEMACRO system variable in Windows-based releases of AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT products
- Manipulate string values with the AutoLISP menucmd function; AutoLISP is not supported in the AutoCAD LT for Mac OS product
