Maybe when you ask Elm to list folders, the functionality could be added to list the folders in "ls" format ie: the way that the ls command lists files. I've got 30 or so folders and the first folders scroll off the screen. All the folder names are short (my lazy fingers), but there are lots of them (my small mind).

Elm is hard-coded to use "ls -C" in your folders directory. At least
of my systems (flavors of Sys V), this *does* produce multiple column
output. Perhaps if this doesn't produce multiple column output on all
systems, this needs to be configurable.
