This feature is built in to the V6+ editions as an option when you name a n=
et.  There is also a built-in off-sheet global naming scheme that can be tu=
rned on or off.  I usually leave it off because it relies on Eagle assignin=
g the grid locations around the outside of the schematic sheet.  All of thi=
s is detailed in the documentation.

Prior to that, there were some library elements called "port5", "port7", et=
c where the # indicated the number of 0.100" grid elements the net arrow co=
vered.
