[wp-hackers] Limiting # of posts when a category is viewed?

[Rich Manalang]

Luc, there is a permalink to the full post at the end or the condensed 
version of the content.  By default, the link text are ellipses 
("...").  If you want to change that, you can modify the following in 
the plugin itself:

    // This is the text that appears after the entry is condensed
    $more_link_text='...';
