Controlling URL length in search output

The URLs for pages matching a search query are usually shown in search output along with the page title and page snippets. Sometimes those URLs are very long, so, by default, the search engine removes characters from the middle of the URL to keep the total length less than 80 characters. A new option to the search engine lets you set that length to some other value. For details, and an example, see the Search Guide section on Output Format.
