Documentation

The ellipses to be used when a field in column view is truncated.

When this is the empty string, as many characters as possible are shown, but then there will be no visual indication that the field has been truncated. When this is a string of length N, the last N characters of a truncated field are replaced by this string. If the column is narrower than the ellipses string, only part of the ellipses string will be shown.
