I suggest the attached patch. When lv is at the beginning of the file,
the patch shows the file name only if it is shorter than the width of
the screen. Rationale:
* the user will be more interested in the contents of the file than
its name
* if the user wants to know the file name, he/she can press the "=" key
at any time
* this problem can happen to any user; it is not very rare if you specify
the file in its absolute path because lv shows the file name as it is
given, not just its basename
* the change is minimal; usually the file name is shorter than the width
of the screen and lv _does_ show it
