Yes, e.g.,

with hopefully more in the future.

This is a very useful thing to have, if for no other reason than that many GWAS authors make their results available in summary form (e.g., for each SNP, the allele frequencies for cases and controls); these can then easily be read into Stata and the p-values recalculated in different ways. Your program would then allow people to plot the results.

I'll give it a try and let you know if I have any comments.
