The statusbar type can be either window or root. If the type is window, then a statusbar will be created for each split window, otherwise it will be created only once. Placement can be top or bottom, which refers to the top or bottom of the screen. Position is a number, the higher the value the lower it will appear in-screen. Visible can be always, active or inactive. Active/inactive is useful only with split windows; one split window is active and the rest are inactive.

Statusbar items can also be added or removed via command. Note that when loading new statusbar scripts that add items, you will need to specify where you want to show the item and how it is aligned. This can be accomplished using the below commands:

 /STATUSBAR <name> ADD [-before | -after <item>] [-priority #] [-alignment left|right] <item>
  /STATUSBAR <name> REMOVE <item>

The item name with statusbar scripts is usually same as the script’s name. Script’s documentation should tell if this isn’t the case. So, to add mail.pl before the window activity item (see the list with /STATUSBAR window), use: /STATUSBAR window ADD -before act mail.

For statusbar scripts, the item name is usually equivalent to the script name. The documentation of the script ought to tell you if this is not the case. For example, to add mail.pl before the window activity item, use: /STATUSBAR window ADD -before act mail.
