======Synopsis:======
[[set]] status_away [<text>]

======Description:======
This variable sets the format of the string displayed in the status bar when
the client is marked as being away.  If the client is not away, nothing is
displayed in the status bar.

This value is represented by **%A** in the [[set status_format|STATUS_FORMAT]]
string.  The **%A** has no special meaning in the __STATUS_AWAY__ string itself
(it will only expand in [[set status_format|STATUS_FORMAT]]).

======Examples:======
Customizing the [[AWAY]] indicator on the status bar:
	/set status_away (Away)
