Subject: Clip at the last "space" character/Display "More..."

Okay, I know this is an easy one, and I've actually *done* it before, I just
can't remember where, or how...

On output, I've got a field that I want to clip at the LAST space character
before 254 characters are displayed.
If it's a memo/text field, and it contains 500 characters, I only want to
display UP TO the very last "space"
character before the 254 is reached.

The field that currently clips a "and a wonderf" would clip at "and a" then
I'd put "more..." following that.

I'm guessing this is so easy, I'm going to slap myself.
