File name in window title #45

Open etdsoft opened 11 years ago

etdsoft commented 11 years ago

If the path is too deep, the file name is truncated out of the window title. It is useful to quickly be able to see the file name you are working with.

Maybe smart truncation like the one in the browser's status bar (i.e. add some dots in the middle of the path) could be added.

Alternatively the file name could be presented in the right-hand side of the toolbar where all the rounded icons are so it's never out of sight.

I have a branch that makes this a little better. I'll see if I can tidy it up and push it to github. Will require a design decision as to whether it's the right way to do it in the main branch.

Maybe it's overkill for this project, but I'm currently using this branching model for other stuff, seems pretty good, especially when multiple people are contributing to the repo:
