Right-click the status bar in order to copy pieces of information from the status bar into the clipboard.

 

Right-clicking the 2nd status bar field permits switching between absolute (default) and relative offset presentation.

 

Right-clicking the 3rd status bar field also permits copying the four hex values at the current position in reverse order into the clipboard. This is useful for following pointers.
