------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Scratch that - I'd incorrectly copied it and had "..". Patch looks good:
svn ci -m "Applying Srihari Reddy's patch from LANG-405, based on Dave Meikle's original patch. This adds a truncateMiddle method to StringUtils. "

> It would be handy to have a String method that cuts out the middle part of a String such that as much as possible is kept from the start and end of the String, but the middle part is replaced by an ellipsis "..."
> BeOS had a function like this, but it's poorly documented, missing examples:
> http://www.beunited.org/bebook/The%20Support%20Kit/String.html#Truncate()
> e.g.:
> A very long text with unimportant stuff in the middle but interesting start and end to see if the text is complete.
> becomes:
> A very long text...to see if the text is complete.
