Dimensions - Text Override - Control Characters

[frey]

In the properties of a dimension you can enter text that shall be shwon instead of the actual dimension.

AutoCAD understands certain control characters, e.g. <> for the value or \X for vertical spacing.

I am looking for a comprehensive list of all control characters that can be used.

Can anybody help?
