%%% Draws a single percent sign (%). This is valid for the TEXT command
only.
Overscoring and underscoring can be in effect at the same time. Both turn off
automatically at the end of the text string.
You can use the %%nnn control sequence to display special characters using
the PostScript fonts.
A sample drawing (truetype.dwg) showing the character map for each font is
provided in the sample folder.
The Euro Symbol
You can use the euro symbol with SHX fonts and their TrueType equivalent
fonts shipped with AutoCAD 2000 and later releases. If your keyboard does
not contain a euro symbol, hold down the Alt key and enter 0128 on the
numeric keypad.

Summary
Entering -text at the Command prompt displays the same prompts as the
TEXT command. Unlike the TEXT command, -TEXT checks the setting of the
TEXTEVAL system variable. When the TEXTEVAL system variable is set to 1,
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.
