Hi all,
I'd like to set the mode line to show the full path of the current file, but only to _replace_ the filename with the fullpath, instead of wiping the entire mode line and replacing it by just the filepath. There are other things, like line position and time that I would like to keep on the mode line.
What I'm currently using: ;; set mode line to show full path of current file
(setq-default mode-line-format (list '((buffer-file-name " %f" (dired-directory dired-directory (revert-buffer-function " %b" ("%b - Dir: " default-directory)))))))
