Lisp : Coordinates without UCS world

Easting and Northing lisp helps to place Eastward and Northward coordinate of a drawing with out changing the UCS to world.

When making settingout cut sheets it is not necessary to place north direction always up, some times need to rotate UCS.

In this case when place coordinates it will not be in parallel to that drawing, this Lisp helps  to place coordinates in user preferd UCS.
