Show longer file names in directory/folder index

If you've ever wanted to show longer file names in your directory listing just create or edit an .htaccess in that folder.

In the file named .htaccess add the following code.

This will show longer file names without being cut off.

Options +Indexes
<IfModule mod_autoindex.c>
  IndexOptions NameWidth=*
</ifModule>
