Hi all, Stefan ansd Larry

Really I am quite interesting about any tool which allows to add simple 
test/annotation on a project: Text block and text annotation from Jython 
console have this facility, without doing any  programming by Change Style and 
text Style.
My proposal is not specifically for Text block. Even soemthing similar to text 
annotation from Jython console would be OK (since basically all text are 
referred to point or line features in CAD)
By the time that a GPS tool will be available, a text/annotation would be  
useful for field survayors, geologists, any people who work in field.
Following the idea of the annotation tool in the Jython console: if there was a 
layer called "Annotation", with a string field  called "Annotation" or TEXT, 
everything written in the fields is automatically displayed on the workbench.
What do you think about?

Thanks in advabce

Peppe
