Summary
Entering -text at the Command prompt displays the same prompts as the
TEXT command. Unlike the TEXT command, -TEXT honors the setting of the
TEXTEVAL system variable. When the TEXTEVAL system variable is set to 2,
AutoLISP

expressions are evaluated when the -TEXT command ends. AutoLISP
expressions that are entered using this method must begin with an exclamation
point or left parenthesis.
The TEXT command honors the TEXTEVAL system variable setting only if
used in a script or AutoLISP expression and all the TEXT command prompts
are included within the script or AutoLISP expression.
