Answer Mr. Kahmer,
Basically, these are attributes nothing too complicated if you've used attribute functions before in autocad. When ever u see gentitan, gentitis, gentitus, gendwg, etc..., these are little text files w/ *.mld extension. open these file w/ notepad and you'll see what i mean. a (genmsg "gentitan" 88) indicates the the word (depending what language is used in autocad) in 88 is used w/ that particular attribute. get it! Now the funny numbers {20.0} for example. its simply the ratio of space to cover divided by text height. so thats like 4" divided by .2 renders 20.0. please let me know if u need further assistance.
