# $EPIC: window_status_format.txt,v 1.3 2006/08/20 18:32:13 sthalik Exp $

Synopsis:

window status_format “[<text>]”

Description:

Normally every window uses the global set status_format value to create a single line status bar. You have the option of overriding the status bar format on a per-window basis.

Remember that changing a window's status_format does not change the global status format, nor does it change any other window's status_format.

It's a really good idea to always put the status format within double quotes so it can contain spaces.

You can delete the window's custom status_format by doing

/window status_format

with no arguments after it. The window will go back to using the global status_format.

Custom window status formats still obey set show_status_all.

See the set status_format help file for more info.

This value is only used when window double is OFF.
