note 97948 added to function.sprintf

$s = 'monkey'; printf("[%-10s]\n", $s); Output: [monkey ] $s = 'the monkey is in the jungle'; printf("[%-10s]\n", $s); Output: [the monkey is in the jungle] But I want the output: [the mokey ] Can I cut the right characters in the string, and leave the output with 10 characters?
