Isolate layer and WBlock Is how it's done. Very easy to code, I'm sure.

Got that.

If you want to automate it, try the LISP forum. It's probably already been done.

On the Autodesk AppStore there is a dialog based freeware tool that will let you select any (or all) layers and it creates an external drawing file of each.
