Firefox Directory Listing Display Control

Firefox gets all the information. What's driving me crazy is the filename length. With the monitor sizes we have today, there's no need to clip the filename display length to 20 characters. There's information in the filename sir.

I tried "how to control directory listing by firefox" and that's been the most promising so far.

Fireforx has all the information about the name. If you hover on the name, you get the status bar giving the full pathname..

I tried "firefox help forum" and got to forums.mozzillazine.org where I searched in "Firefox Features" for "filename display length control" - nothing.
