The rest is not drawn, and the cut-off text ends with a note saying how many more characters were not shown.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis keeps an unusually large piece of output from flooding the screen or slowing the interface down. If text looks shorter than you expected, the note at the end tells you it was trimmed for display.\n\n- Area: Terminal UI\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
