It may also require that at least one file name is also wider than the window, or that the listing itself does not fit in the number of lines remaining (so that complist has to scroll up and down while cycling through a menu-selection). } Also, does the long-prompt patch need to be applied to 4.2? Apparently, though calling it a "long-prompt patch" is a misnomer.
