Hello Chris,
    Thanks for the feedback. Sorry for the delay in responding, I was away on a business trip and am just getting myself re-organized.
    The changes necessary for the HATCH support are almost complete and then I will start on the DIMENSION support.
    Just a quick comment on the support for BLOCKS and INSERT. So far it has been possible to avoid the support of BLOCKS by using the QCad procedure of exploding BLOCKS, which I guess is also possible in AutoCAD as well (see comment 10 above). As a general rule of thumb, I don't think this script should support features like interpreting or rendering BLOCKS if these features can be easily implemented in AutoCAD or QCad.
