Writing to the AppWindow's Status Field

The text in the lower left corner of the AppWindow's status bar can be set and queried by the PML user. This field supports application status information and you should note that some parts of the system also write to the status field, for example, command prompts and cursor picking, so any information you write should be considered as transient.

This facility is supported by the !!FMSYS object methods:

!!FMSYS.SetStatusText( !message is STRING )

!string = !!FMSYS.StatusText()
