[Feature Request] abbreviated folder structure along with the filename #74

Open silasb opened 8 years ago

silasb commented 8 years ago

I've been doing a lot of React/Redux which has very similar filenames spread across different folders. The issue is that I can't visually tell which file the folder is in without doing extra work.

It would be nice if we can see an abbreviated folder structure along with the filename. Example below.

21]>    c/P/Paginator.js
15]>    c/C/c/PaginatorContainer.js

c/P/Paginator.js => components/Paginator/Paginator.js c/C/c/PaginatorContainer.js => components/Cards/containers/PaginatorContainer.js

Thoughts?

Will the basename option not work? It displays the basename, but then the relative path in parenthesis after that.

I think that may work. I ended up switching to full screen Buffergator to get more screen real estate, but in default mode it wouldn't really work because how narrow the pane is.

It would still be a nice feature to have though.

Possibly. But honestly, I cannot commit to having any time in the near future to work on it. I'll keep it on the to-do list, however. And, of course, I'll happily welcome any PR that does it!
