NAME

Padre::Wx::StatusBar - Encapsulates status bar customizations

DESCRIPTION

Padre::Wx::StatusBar implements Padre's status bar. It is the bottom pane holding various, err, status information on Padre.

The information shown are (in order):

• File name of current document, with a leading star if file has been updated and not saved

• (Optional) Icon showing status of background tasks

• (Optional) MIME type of current document

• Type of end of lines of current document

• Position in current document

It inherits from Wx::StatusBar, so check Wx documentation to see all the available methods that can be applied to it besides the added ones (see below).

METHODS

new

    my $statusbar = Padre::Wx::StatusBar->new( $main );

say
