; Command Reactors to set entities on the appropiate layer
; without user intervention.
;
; Programmed by: Kevin Petursson
; Date: October 6, 2006
; Revisions: 1 - October 16, 2006. Added 'defun setLayerCurrent' to
; check for layer prior to setting layer. If the layer
; does not exist, it will be created.
; Added Printer Checking routines
;
; Big thanks to Lee Ambrosius and his article in July 2006
; AUGIWorld magazine on Command Reactors
