Have you ever wonder how you could change a commands shorcut shorter? How can we shorten "REC"(for rectangle), maybe an "EC" or "RC". Well in this CADTool tip #1, we'll show you how.
1. Open AutoCAD
2. Go to "Tools" menu
3. Then "Customize"
4. Then go to "Edit program parameters (acad.pgp)".

5. After you open the .pgp file, go to the end of the file, this is where users can modify and use their own shortcuts (remember: do not modify and/or add elsewhere, only at the end), this is to prepare AutoCAD for posible upgrade and modifications.
In this example I used the command "Edgemode". At the last line of the file type "EM"(the shortcut),
then comma, spaces,
then "*",
then the word "EDGEMODE".
6. After inserting the text, Save the file.
7. Go to AutoCAD command prompt, type "REINIT"(this will re-initialize all loaded components of AutoCAD), and hit Enter.
8. Check "PGP File" then click OK.
