===== Default Keybindings =====

None.

===== Syntax =====

  * ''**defhstatus** [//status//]''

===== Description =====

The hardstatus line that all new windows will get is set to //status//.
This command is useful to make the hardstatus of every window display the
window number or title or the like.  Status may contain the same
directives as in the window messages (see [[man:String Escapes]]), but the
directive escape character is ''^E'' (octal 005) instead of ''%''.  This
was done to make a misinterpretation of program generated hardstatus lines
impossible.  If the parameter //status// is omitted, the current default
string is displayed.  Per default the hardstatus line of new windows is
empty.
