The UI in quite different between these two CAD software,there are another CAD Software called ZWCAD, is quite familiar with AutoCAD. It keeps classic icon and user interface just like AutoCAD 2006.

  There are other CAD with UI close to AutoCAD. I suppose DraftSight was the choice because it is free. There another free option - nanoCAD. It is like AutoCAD LT plus it has API (.NET, C++)

  Got it! Thanks, ZWCAD support LISP, do NanoCAD support it?
