On a whim I tried config setting:


    # Status Bar
    statusbar.visible=1
    statusbar.text.1= line $(LineNumber), column $(ColumnNumber) ($(OverType)) ($(EOLMode)) $(FileAttr) cp:$(CodePage) cDOTp:$(code.page) -  $(SelLength) chars selected $(FilePath)

Neither worked (which may not be surprising), but what was interesting is that CodePage was blank, whereas code.page was consistently 0 (zero) - irrespective of what the File->Encoding menu item was set to.

This may be an enhancement request in disguise, but I'm confused about why the two entries are different.
