I would like to show the full file path and name for every

Sounds like you're hunting the 'statusline' option:
:help 'statusline'
:set stl=%{expand('%:p')}%r%h%w
I'm not sure why, when I used "%F%t%r%h%w" in the help for
options.txt, it gave me "options.txtoptions.txt[RO][Help]"
instead of "/usr/share/vim/vim72/doc/options.txt[RO][Help]" The
help clearly states the "%F" is the "[f]ull path to the file in
the buffer" but it didn't give me the full path (":pwd" gave me
the expected "/home/tim"). The help on 'stl' gives you all sorts
of tweaks you can make to your status line.
