    I was trying to use this (see bottom) to display the current text style in the status line. But when I do it removes the other things I already have there that comes from some 3rd party software we use. I need to keep that stuff. Is there a way to add this to the status line without removing the items already there. Maybe with a lsp file that can be loaded?? Or is there another way to always have the current text style displayed on the screen? Maybe even in a toolbar like the dimstyle is displayed?

    I think this is a diesel macro language. I am not very familiar with writing this stuff.

    (setvar "modemacro" "$(getvar,textstyle)")
