I think that your 'cmdheight' is 1 and 'showcmd' or 'ruler' is on and
perhaps 'laststatus' is 0 or 1.
How about this
let ru_save = &ruler
let sc_save = &showcmd
set noruler noshowcmd
echo "]s to skip to word, zg to add word, z= to suggest word"
let &showcmd = sc_save
let &ruler = ru_save
But the message may be truncated when there is no space for showcmd and
ruler. It seems that showcmd and ruler require some spaces on the right
side of cmdline area.
