Auto cut-tagging achieved
Well, that was easy. I've been fiddling a bit with making my friends view block quizlets, which involves a bunch of string parsing that the LJ style language does not already include, and ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
laurion commented that it would be handy to chop entries over a certain length. I realized that I could do that by adding two lines to the basic layout, so now my friends page auto-cuts after 1000 characters. (That number is actually rather smaller than I want for regular use, but works well for demonstration purposes.)
Take that, overlong uncut entries.

Thanks for the tip and code fragment. Until today I hadn't had enough incentive to go read the S2 docs yet.
(And I agree that it's reasonable to point out the option of using cut tags when a fairly new user seems unaware of them -- I've done that myself. I'm not completely anti-cut-tag; they do have their uses.)
