+Common - Common routines used in a lot of places.
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+  my $short_text = Common::truncate($long_text, at => 10);
+
+=head1 FUNCTIONS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item C<truncate $text, %params>
+
+Truncates C<$text> at a position and insert an ellipsis if the text is
+longer. The maximum number of characters to return is given with the
+paramter C<at> which defaults to 50.
+
+The optional parameter C<strip> can be used to remove unwanted line
+feed/carriage return characters from the text before truncation. It
+can be set to C<1> (only strip those at the end of C<$text>) or
+C<full> (replace consecutive line feed/carriage return characters in
+the middle by a single space and remove tailing line feed/carriage
+return characters).
