Perhaps we need to make this a bit more complicated. It makes sense to  
truncate the left side of the path, but the start of the filename is  
generally the most important part. As a bit of a contrived example,  
consider two files open in the same directory (so no path bits are  
shown). With right-truncation of the filename, you'd see:

employees_contr...  |  payroll_controll...

But with left truncation, you'd likely see:

...s_controller.rb  |  ...ll_controller.rb

So I think it might need some more smarts.
