Maybe because you misunderstood him. I believe he meant just the above, 
i.e.:

        ^G              ruler with short filename
        1^G             ruler with filename with full path, but with
                        homedir (if present) reduced to ~
        n^G             (where n >= 2) ruler with full path as above,
                        but also with buffer number
        :echo expand('%:p')
                        current filename will absolute full path,
                        no ruler

(where in all cases, ^G means "hit Ctrl-G"). See the third paragraph of 
":help CTRL-G".
