Dear 'mutters', i have a problem using the file browser (e.g. when choosing an attachment). I'm generally happy with the 'folder_format' default settings showing all the detailed stuff about rights, owner, group, lenght etc.[1] But the files i have to deal with have fairly long filenames and differ only in their extensions (part after the last dot in filename). The filenames are truncated, so i can't see the extension and therefor can't choos the right file to attach. This would be no problem if i could customize the file browser status bar format to show the filename of the marked file. But i don't know how to do this, nor any other way to get sight of the whole filename. Any suggestions? Ciao, Gregor 'struggling with english' Zattler [1] I allready made a macro for viewing the folder list because for a while i used folder names with full realnames + email adress: folder-hook . 'set folder_format="%3C %t %N %F %2l %-8.8u %-8.8g %8s %d %f"' macro index c "<enter-command>set folder_format=\"%3C%t%N%7s %f\"\r<enter-command>set index_format="%4C|%Z|%[!%y%m%d]|%-17.17L|%4l|%s"\r<change-folder>" 'lean file menue for xxl folder names' macro pager c "<enter-command>set folder_format=\"%3C%t%N%7s %f\"\r<enter-command>set index_format="%4C|%Z|%[!%y%m%d]|%-17.17L|%4l|%s"\r<change-folder>" 'lean file menue for xxl folder names' but in case of attachments i want to see all the stuff the default settings let show.
