I have a set of variables to track which prot(ection) spells I have on me. I would like to display these in my Status Window, but the problem arises that there are 40+ possible spells which can be up or down at any time. This takes up 40+ lines of my status window. My window runs vertically, so this is doable, but messy, and I have other things I'd rather display there.

This is how I have it now:
Active Prots
%if( @prots_stoneskin = "ON", Stoneskin)
%if( @prots_barkskin = "ON", Barkskin)
%if( @prots_invuln = "ON", Invuln)
%if( @prots_ac = "ON", AC)
%if( @prots_iw = "ON", Iron Will)

But if, say, Barkskin, Iron Will and Stoneskin are ON, then it displays like this in the window:
Active Prots
Stoneskin
Barkskin

Iron Will

Is there any way to avoid spaces like these, so it would display like:
Active Prots
Stoneskin
Barkskin
Iron Will

I thought of a carriage return function but I couldn't pull it off. Any ideas?

By virtue of using %if you will get a value returned and a cariage return.

You could format it all into one line that wraps conviniently your
status window width (%format)

You could come up with a show scheme that uses @Variables and %cr.

You could show non active prots with the scheme you figure out if that
displays less things.

Simple change will get rid of those blank lines.

Active Prots
%if( @prots_stoneskin = "ON", Stoneskin%cr)%if( @prots_barkskin = "ON", Barkskin%cr)%if( @prots_invuln = "ON", Invuln%cr)%if( @prots_ac = "ON", AC%cr)%if( @prots_iw = "ON", Iron Will%cr)

Just follow that pattern and you should be happy.
