Currently it's displayed in the 'Backup History' tool window (topmost entry).
To check it on demand you could use a macro (bound to a key or button)
Example:
_command void show_filetimestamp() name_info(','VSARG2_MARK|VSARG2_REQUIRES_EDITORCTL)
{
bf := p_buf_name;
if ( bf != '' )
{
ts := _file_date(bf, 'L') :+ " - " :+ _file_time(bf, 'L');
message("'" bf "' " ts);
}
}
IMHO the file timestamp is not interesting enough to permanently display it in the status bar.
