truncate {#language.modifier.truncate}

========

This truncates a variable to a character length, the default is 80. As

an optional second parameter, you can specify a string of text to

display at the end if the variable was truncated. The characters in the

string are included with the original truncation length. By default,

`truncate` will attempt to cut off at a word boundary. If you want to

cut off at the exact character length, pass the optional third parameter

of TRUE.

           3            boolean      No       FALSE   This determines whether or not to truncate at a word boundary with FALSE, or at the exact character with TRUE.

           4            boolean      No       FALSE   This determines whether the truncation happens at the end of the string with FALSE, or in the middle of the string with TRUE. Note that if this setting is TRUE, then word boundaries are ignored.
