I see. But i don't have a quick fix for this . The only thing I would know is 
to reduce the display size of the filename again and only display the first 
40 instead of 80 chars.


Your other question: Why don't we display the whole map? 
Yes I would like to display all, but at the moment there is too much hard 
coded concerning the displayed size so there is a high chance of braking the 
whole code with this. But we are planing on displaying more than a fixed 
small window of the map. But there is no detailed plan or timeline for this.
