A text command starts with a { and ends with a }. After the {, there must be the command name. Optionally, after the command name, there may be a parameter. Whitespace after the { and before the } is ignored.
Text commands are parsed in page dialog text. They may be escaped by typing a backslash (\) before the { character. (Example: \{Escaped})
