Status bar and displaying encoding/code page

[chris clark]

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.

Variables that aren't set are empty.

 

whereas code.page was consistently 0 (zero) - irrespective of what the File->Encoding menu item was set to.

   Global properties commonly includes

 code.page=0

I opened a ticket about it: #1497 scite - Add Encoding property that may be displayed in status bar
