Yeah, this stuff is a bit obscure (the other one being %-sequences for the specs) and I always find myself chasing sources when I need any of this. Frankly by now I have already remembered roughly where to look for. Once tracked down however the description within sources is pretty good actually, so please refer there for the time being. Maciej
