Option to hide help/status line at the bottom

I've scanned the docs and can't seem to find a way to hide the status line that says "Hit enter to...". I'm using broot inside neovim and want to have as much screen real estate as possible when I pop up the broot window. The "Possible verbs: ..." message and warning/error messages are still needed though, so maybe only pop up the status line when ':' or space is typed and or some sort of warning or error should be displayed?

Before I address your concern, can you tell me more about your workflow and how you use broot inside neovim ?

Hi! I use a terminal plugin called vim-floaterm to display broot inside of neovim. broot is able to open files within the same neovim instance by taking advantage of neovim's new --remote feature. Here's a screenshot of the broot window:

In my case, since I want to use broot as a side file tree for helix. When I press l or enter, the selected file will be opened in the right pane, causing the status line to be hidden partially:
