Gordon Richhardt supplied a color based layer manager that turns the visibility of layers on and off based on the selection of a color. There are three commands added to AutoCAD when the LISP code is loaded. ACV to make all colors visible, CISO makes only a selected color visible, and CINV makes a specific color invisible. Nice tool to have around when doing some detail clean up work on complex drawings.

Ronald Maneja provided us with an offset and dimensioning tool. Multiple offsets with automatic dimension option does just what the title says. Load up the LISP code and type ROFF to get it started. Pick an object to offset, locate the side, then start providing offset values. When finished with the offsets you will have an option to dimension the distances between each offset.
