The order of results in a custom status line is the same as the order of
the % fields in your 'statusline' setting. 'titlestring', when supported
(and not all Vim versions support it) is the single title in the
titlebar at the top of the Vim screen, not the status line at the bottom
of every split window; but the same applies (the leftmost % field in the
setting appears leftmost on the title).

As said under ":help 'titlestring'", setting the title (at top of the
screen) is supported only in gvim, in the W32 and Amiga console
versions, and in console versions where t_ts is *not* empty. If t_ts is
empty (in a console version other than Windows or Amiga), then setting
the title is simply not supported by that Vim version on that terminal.
Setting a custom status line (at bottom of every split window) or a
custom ruler (at the bottom of the last window if it has no status line)
requires a Vim version compiled with the +statusline feature (as shown
in the top half of the output of :version, or by a nonzero reply when
asked ":echo has('statusline')" with the single quotes but without the
double ones)

See ":help 'statusline'" (with the single quotes but without the double
ones) for a description of % fields applicable not only to the
'statusline' option but also to 'titlestring', 'tabline', 'guitablabel',
'guitabtooltip' and 'rulerformat' (and maybe others of which I'm not aware).

Best regards,
Tony.
