Try v146m of netrw, available from my website
(http://www.drchip.org/astronaut/vim/index.html#NETRW), and see the help
for g:netrw_dynamic_maxfilenamelen .
You can already change the length; see :help g:netrw_maxfilenamelen.
With the dynamic setting enabled, the maximum filename length is used
(tnx to Takahiro Yoshihara).
