I'd like to use the syntax in the yaml file. Here's an acad one I found:
;;;
; (C) Copyright 1997 by Autodesk, Inc.
;;; ltypeshp.SHP - shapes for complex linetypes
;;;
*130,6,TRACK1
014,002,01C,001,01C,0
*131,3,ZIG
012,01E,0
*132,6,BOX
014,020,02C,028,014,0
*133,4,CIRC1
10,1,-040,0
*134,6,BAT
025,10,2,-044,02B,0
I would lie to use something like
name: box
definition: 014,020,02C,028,014,0
in my ltype yaml file. I also need to put the ltscale into the drawing entity.
