#### 4.9.9 StatusBar

Syntax: `StatusBar [0|1]`
Abbreviation: `ST`

sets the status bar flag. When this flag is true, the status bar is displayed at the bottom of the screen. There are only two reasons to turn off the status bar we are aware of:

- if you are using `ne` through a slow connection, updating the line/column indicator can really slow down editing;
- scrolling caused by cursor movement on terminals that do not allow to set a scrolling region can produce annoying flashes at the bottom of the screen.

If you invoke `StatusBar` with no arguments, it will toggle the flag. If you specify 0 or 1, the flag will be set to false or true, respectively.

The `StatusBar` setting is saved in your `~/.ne/.default#ap` file when you use the `SaveDefPrefs` command or the ‘`Save Def Prefs`’ menu. It is not saved by the `SaveAutoPrefs` command.
