Hi, everybody.  I'm Jason.  I sent this once, but I don't think I was
properly subscribed, since it didn't show up in the archives.  Sorry
for any duplicates.

I'm a long-time AutoCAD user, and I just started using Python.  So
far, using win32all, I've got a Python script to act on AutoCAD and
react to an AutoCAD event.  Now I'm trying to get a script to modify
an AutoCAD database via AutoCAD COM calls AFTER the drawing is closed.
 Is this something that can be done either after BeginClose or after
EndClose is received?

Also, does anybody have any experience with the AutoCAD (2006)
ObjectARX SDK[1]?  I was wondering how to go about installing the
additional libraries so their classes can be accessed with Python. 
How does makepy.py know which type libraries to look at when it
generates it's output (what do you call the output of makepy.py
anyway?)?

Thanks a lot,
Jason
