After query results are displayed, only the base filename
is displayed. If one uses the up and down arrow keys to
select a query result, it would be nice if the full path of
the file was displayed in a status line (perhaps on the
bottom of the screen).

    Or maybe you should just have used the existing -p option?

    -p doesn't work well with a 80 column window. When using
    cscope with large projects and deeper directories, path names
    can consume alot of the screen.

    I've always been mildly frustrated by the -p option, in that
    I'd much rather have an option that allowed me to pass a
    prefix that always gets stripped off the filename (e.g.,
    "/usr/src/linux") than have the -p behavior, which only lets
    you saw how many path name components to display.
