The following code works for me. However, I don't use it
See below:
;; 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)))))))
Showing the full path in the mode line is too cluttered for me.
I prefer to show it in the title bar:
;; format title bar to show full path of current file
(setq-default frame-title-format
(list '((buffer-file-name " %f"
(dired-directory
dired-directory
(revert-buffer-function " %b"
("%b - Dir: " default-directory)))))))
I'm using the cvs version.
