You can take a look at UseDecor and UseStyle in the man page, but this
probably does not solve your specific problem.

You can't inherit decors and there is no something like CopyDecor command.
But you may simulate this operation using your function, see:

Decors do not get along very well with styles. The future of decors
(whether they should be dropped in favor of styles) is still not decided.
