You can e.g. Redefine the PLOT command to insert (or modify) a block containing the required attributes. This will need a LISP routine.

"LISt Processing" .
So in our case we use a dialect of LISP called: AutoLISP .
For more help navigate on google about AutoLISP programms and how we use them.

autolisp is the text command entry for old-head CAD users. These days there are icons for everything. I saw go with what Vladimir said and just create a block. Here we use blocks for everything.
