Please describe the problem you're trying to solve

The current layout for displaying filenames with corresponding information on the opposite side of the pane may not be optimal on large, high res screens and tilling window managers.

Would you be willing to contribute this feature?

  • Yes, I'll give it a shot

Describe the solution you'd like

The ability to display line mode to the left of the filename would make eye tracking much easier in the above cases.
