Status line |
Is there any way to make the status line bigger, or a similar tool for use that is a seperate window?

The status line cannot be bigger, but you can use the status windows (#STW) which does allow multiple lines.

You can also right click the status window to modify it. Also, you may sue the #STW command to modify it's contents:
#STW {Line 1: @var1 %crlf Line 2: @var2}

the status window seems to consume quite a large bit of processing power, is there any reason for this?
Also, when i right click on the window, it brings up the profiles for the status line, not the window itself |

also, %crlf inserts a blank line between the new line and the old one, is there a way to make only one return?

Because it does quite a bit of processing, maybe? (just a guess)
"Also, when i right click on the window, it brings up the profiles for the status line, not the window itself"
They are much the same. Status lines use the Status Line field, Status Windows use the Window field.
"also, %crlf inserts a blank line between the new line and the old one, is there a way to make only one return?"
Either %cr or %lf, as you prefer.

Try %cr instead of %crlf.
The status window and status line both use the same settings object (that little thing with the gauge icon), where the single line text box defines the status line (or part thereof) and the big multi-line textbox below it defines the status window. For triggers and most all other settings, the big multi-line box would correspond to the executable code contained in that setting.
