What about the suggestion from #166 (comment):
This would display it normally, but skip it in case there would have been a hit-enter prompt. |
|
Would love to see this PR or a similar change in vim-dispatch. |

len() is byte length, it only works for ASCII. Use len(substitute(cmd, '.', '.', 'g')) to get the number of characters.
Maybe this explains the 12/13 discrepancy?

Use '<' . matchstr(cmd, '\{' . max_cmd_length - 1 . '\}$') to get the correct length and match Vim's usual truncation (avoiding any encoding issues from the ellipsis in the process).
No. Requiring more there is a bug in Neovim, and this patch here should maybe cope for that, but I'll look into getting it fixed there also. |

The difference is due to (not) using |
|
Even with (re)setting showcmd it will overwrite the tail when (re)setting it. But until it is fixed (and for older versions) I think we should check the two settings (ruler, showcmd) and take those into account for the max length. |
Improve, based on Vim's code (comp_col), inspired by https://github.com/vim-scripts/ingo-library/blob/master/autoload/ingo/avoidprompt.vim.
