To change the status to `foo bar` execute:
dwm -s "foo bar"
+
+Piping into `dwm -s` is currently not supported but you can set the
+status to the output of any command by doing something like:
+
+ dwm -s "$(run_command_which_outputs_the_status)"
+
+For example to set the status to the current date run:
+
+ dwm -s "$(date)"
