Since sending the orginal e-mail I have found the following command
"^A ^W". It shows the windows with the status symbols that you are
speaking about. But I have found that the status symbols only show on
the "^A ^W" command not on the %w string escape.
For example my current hardstatus line is set to "%H(%l): %w" and I get:
sarah(0.76 0.68 0.35): 0 bash 2 gramps 5 xorg-fonts 6* gimp 9 top
If I use the command "^A ^W" it shows the following:
0@ bash 2- gramps 5(L) xorg-fonts 6*(L) gimp 9@ top
How do I setup my hardstatus line to shows flags of all the windows
(like the output of "^A ^W" command?) I assume the solution has
something to do with the string escape "%f" but I have been able to
show the flags on the current window. I am shooting for my hardstatus
line it to look like this:
sarah(0.76 0.68 0.35): 0@ bash 2- gramps 5(L) xorg-fonts 6*(L)
gimp 9@ top
How do I get there?
Thanks,
